Interesting, I think I would prefer a stand alone one myself, I have a Velleman 
digital scope that connects to Parallel port on a PC but it  stays in the 
box unused. I'm surprised there aren't more low cost used old scopes they 
seem to hold their value. I'd be interested to know what you end up going 
with and how you get on with it. One advantage of the Velleman kit over 
all of the other PC based ones is that there is a function generator available 
that enables you to do a bode plot (plotting input against output through
a range of frequencies) really useful for measuring how linear a circuit
is over a range of frequencies.
