Yes, that's always been its big selling point. 1GS/s real-time.

It also has a selectable equivalent time sampling mode (up to 10GS/s), but 
you have to specifically select this through a menu.
In this mode the 1Mpoint memory comes in at 100ns/div.

No, I haven't open my unit. But bet your bottom dollar they are 100MHz, 
simply no other way to do it.
