Hey! I just stumbpled upoon this website! You can use your sound card as an osciloscope! I feel pretty silly for not thinking about it... But anyway, you can download windows version for free, there is a link on that website.

Also, if there is any linux programmer here, I'm thinking to make similar program for linux.

Is the process used [here] (http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Making_XO_sensors/How_to_connect_sensors), as regards the audio jack, the same process needed to make a probe for the pc based oscilloscope mentioned above?
