Hello rohini,

Welcome to the forums!!

I think essentially they are just oscilloscopes only , where powerscopes will have power probes for complex power electronics circuits analysis...

As far as I'm aware there are still loads of CRO's made, probably still more than LCD ones? - even Maplin list three different models.

*checks Maplin, RS, Rapid and Farnel*

You're right, it's both good and surprising that old analogue 'scopes are still made.
