My new toy arrived today: http://www.saleae.com/logic
Got the software d/l'd and installed np; hooked it up and had it working right out of the box in minutes. It's so simple and intuitive, I haven't even bothered to read any documentation yet, but I've been hooking it up to various logic chips and acquiring data and playing. It's amazing how tiny the thing is. Even with my underpowered netbook (with no other apps running and no other USB devices connected) it had no complaints capturing data at its max rate (24MHz).
Haven't had a chance to actually use it to diagnose a real-life problem, but I'll report back with pics and screenshots when I do. (May be a while, not to many board problems fail to expose themselves with the 'scope...)
