Decent all around inexpensive DMM these days?

Tweakers' Asylum

Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ.

Sadly, my trusty Radio Shack DMM (which we submariners referred to as a "Micronta Fluke") recently gave up the ghost after 25+ years of excellent service.

The OBVIOUS answer would be to get an actual Fluke, but my budget is limited. I COULD spend up to $100 or so, if I needed to, but if I could find something durable, dependable, quick, and accurate like that old Micronta for much less money, I'd be happy with that. I figure, in 2 decades, there may have been some useful progress - and I didn't see many threads addressing this issue that are from less than a decade back.

Ideas? :)
