I have also heard good reports about the Lecroy CATC (but I've never 
tried to use one).

It depends what you want to do.  For some problems, they are the only 
way to find out what's wrong.  Such problems tend to be relatively 
rare, however, unless you're doing USB hardware design.

And face it, the analyzers are not cheap.  So if you have a hardware 
level problem and you badly need to fix it, and finding the answer is 
worth a lot of money to you, then yes -- the analyzer is definitely 
worthwhile.  Otherwise it probably isn't.
