Don't forget the ability to mooch or exchange services for the usage of someone else's scope on occasion - maybe someone local to you has one that you could use. I always abused my friends in my old town for woodshop usage, in exchange they got to abuse me for my electronics and computer based electroacoustic software (we were all speaker builders and stereo DIY'ers; they had a couple of grand in their woodshops, I had a couple of grand in my electronics measurement & design stuff). 'twas mutually beneficial.
