High end (to me) frequently means "more than I will ever need or use." I say buy what you will need for the next few years and spend your money on diving. You can always buy "high end" in a few more years when you may or may not need it. At that point, you can sell your basic computer on ebay for almost what you bought it for and then turn around and buy "high end" and it will likely make what is now known as high end look basic. Moreover, when you do start diving tech, you will probably be taught to use tables and be told to turn you high end computer into a $100 bottom timer. Have fun with whatever you choose! JMHO's.
