I have one of those. And for $50, I'm quite happy with it. But do not consider
this professional equipment - don't even dream about 'longevity'. The probes
are quite delicate, the board needs care to avoid shortcircuits, the delivered
firmware needs updating out-of-the-box, and the best of the driver software I 
found has not been updated for years. (I _do_ hope someone corrects me)

Again, I'm happy with it, it did solve my (homebrewing) project, but I 
would probably not want to depend on it commercially.

John

Hint: Buy an extra set of probes - the first bag I opened had one clip with
badly injected plastic, and did not remain attached.
