content: The SDS6000X Pro would have looked much better without the Panda look!The screen should have a white bezel to avoid the "not enough margin in the upper-left corner" lookWho prefers the Non-Panda look better as well?Attachment 1: BEFORE - PANDA LOOKAttachment 2: AFTER - NON-PANDA LOOK

content: The Non-Panda look with the white bezel looks much nicer! No discussion hereThe Panda look with the black bezel and the "not enough margin in the upper left corner" look, looks ugly.

content: To me the "Panda" look is nicer. It jas a LeCroy Wavepro or Tek MDO feel to it.However, as I mentioned when Dave criticized Instek's GDS1054 look: when a review's only criticism is in the looks, you can rest assured you have a good product out there.

content: I like the Panda look, too. I think the information at the edges of the screen is easier to read. With the high contrast border it seems more difficult to read.

content: The only value in this topic has been the cute pics of pandas - both the ones on the slide and the scope!At least that makes it an improvement on some of the other recent posts by pascal.

content: I tend to disagree. The panda wheel <-> hamster wheel thing doesn't make any sense even to a native speaker.BTW: the original design looksmuchbetter to me and would do so even if you hadn't cropped quite a few pixels on the right side.

content: Quote from: pascal_sweden on July 12, 2020, 02:39:54 pmI don't need to "speak" German to read it and have basic comprehension. While I am far from fluent, I did learn it at high school a long time ago and did pretty well as I enjoyed it far better than French. We are pretty multi-cultural here in Australia.If anything your recent posts have shown you have a preference for the old fashioned dull off-white aesthetics and scope UI's, and dislike anything slightly more modern or progressive.Quote from: 0xdeadbeef on July 12, 2020, 03:03:13 pmIt made as much sense as the rest of his post.

You adore the Panda look.End of discussion.Why did I bring up the panda wheel?1) I got offended by the Photoshop remark below.Just because I gave my own opinion and used a rough sketch, why should one make such a remark at the start of a thread?Quote from: Zbig on July 12, 2020, 11:28:16 am2) You just like and follow whatever LeCroy and Tek comes up with.Get a life in the zoo Mr. Panda!Popcorn sponsored by LeCroy and Tektronix.
