John,
It isn't a case of being a purist for quite a few of us.
The computer switching power supplies and the the monitors, (even LCD),
throw entirely too many spurious signals. I've played with all sorts of
"scope software" both by desktop and laptop. The spurs and background
noise level just are intolerable.
I'll stickk with an SM-220 an BP-8.
