Not really, since the monitor would be above the scope.  The footprint
wouldn't need to be any larger than even a small digital scope.  It would b=

taller with a bigger display, but I think horizontal space is the biggest
issue in most cases.

This is to save cost.  Those who can afford a real scope will get a real
scope.  If you're on a budget, sitting a old 12" monitor atop a box no
bigger than a real scope would be a pretty good alternative I think.

That would defeat the design criteria and make it pointless.
