Mike,
Can't help it, it's my job. Seriously though, I haven't had a 453 to use in a while, we are currently using Tek TDS2024B. Takes almost as long to boot as an old tube type to come on but it is so much lighter. It sits on my bench instead of a cart on the floor. Of course there is nothing like an old 524 to sit next to on a cold morning. For that matter we still miss the old Ampex 1000 or an RCA TRT-1B for a nice warm feeling in a cold tape room.
