Yes, except for the tendency to wander off, I'd be inclined to
recommend multiple cheap meters over a single fancy one.  I've got a
radio shack analog, two <$10 DMMs, and the analog meters in my benchtop
power supply.  I can treat them in ways I've be afraid to treat
something that cost several hundred dollars.  Sure, they're not as
robust.  But it doesn't matter...

(I am lusting after something with f,L,C and rs232, though...)
