An oscilloscope is an electronic test instrument that creates a visible two-dimensional graph of an electrical signal's voltage versus time. Think of it as a \"heart monitor\" for electronic signals - it lets you see the \"pulse\" of electricity in a circuit.

The device typically displays waveforms on a screen with a grid, allowing precise measurements. Modern digital oscilloscopes can capture one-time events, store data for later analysis, and even perform automatic measurements. They're essential tools in electronics labs, manufacturing facilities, and repair shops.

Probably twice as the Macbook Air fast as what I have now. \u00a0But, more importantly, \"not running on my lap\". \u00a0So things like \"I need to have an external hard drive attached\" are not an inconvenience.\r

Horizontal scaling, often called \"scaling out,\" is when you add more machines or instances to your system instead of making existing machines more powerful. It's like adding more attorneys to your law firm rather than asking each attorney to work more hours.
