Despite its high price and snazzy interface, does it provide any
more
useful information then the tried-and-trusted (transistorised!)
GDO?

That depends on whether or not you have the skills to utilize the
information such devices provide.


Most of the hams I have seen with the MFJ do not have the skills to
really
use it and a simple swr meter would do just as well or beter for
them.

That's a sad comment and contrary to my experience, though most of
the
hams I know are also engineers or technicians in real life.

professionals should take up another hobby ......

Why?



because they are a pain in the arse trying to lord it over
non-professionals trying to enjoy their hobby ...

You mean like when they disparage old wives tales that have been passed
down from the days of spark but contradict the laws of physics?



yes...and boy do they love to make you feel small....


Sounds like sour grapes to me.

Most hams I know are eager to learn new things.
