Ok so...one of my first threads on this forum was narrowing down the computer search...Based on a few parameters -wrist mount, nitrox, non-ai, not super conservative - I thought I had a working short list of sorts...Suunto Gekko, Mares Nemo Sport, Aeris Manta...I read...and asked...and read...and asked. Then I went to a lds. Saw the Geo (read Manta) and was underwhelmed of sorts. I was talked into looking at the Vyper 2. I was told I could change the Bubble algorithim to make it less conservative...was told on here I could not. I read...and read...and read...Today I went to another lds - HUGE MISTAKE on a few levels. First, it is lobster eve. People were all over the place. Second...I am sure the people in the shop are exhaused due to the aforementioned buzz but when I was being helped, my questions on the Suunto couldn't be answered and I was blown off when I asked for more information by the man who seemed to be in charge:11:. He just threw his bottom line prices at me (which weren't that impressive) and acted like I was insane for not craving a Suunto. "Everyone uses a Suunto" as he pointed to everyone...well fine...everyone in YOUR group uses a Suunto. Noone in my dive group uses a Suunto so HOW DOES THE %@$$##! ALGORITHM COMPARE AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN?!?!?!?! So...now I am home disenchanted and wondering about the Aeris XR2
