I think they sold for $60k back in the early 2000s.
This blog post shows a list price of $24,490 for the base model without options: https://www.jhongelectronics.org/2024/01/tektronix-tds7104-f....
I remember seeing the Logic Analyzer from that same series in a lab I worked in in the early 2010s, was told it cost as much as a house at the time.
Just wait until it needs a repair, and they tell you it's no longer being serviced. Been there.
This is one of the cases where it might be better to lease it.
