I have suunto computers with MacDive, works just fine! And the author of MacDive is here on the board too!

The Suunto computers get no official support, but there are a few Mac programs that will download from certain Suunto computers + a workable USB cable. MacDive is one, DiveLog is another.

The only problem with the Sensus Ultra, aside from the fact that it gives no dynamic readout, is the fact that it does not record tank data.

Ditto - this is what I am using. Mark is pretty responsive to the program and the users.

It's is a dive logger, it's not a dive computer. It wouldn't serve any purpose to have it be air integrated, that would just quadruple the price. The Sensus is something you use in conjunction with a dive computer or bottom timer that doesn't do dive logging (or doesn't do dive logging to your satisfaction).
BTW, in the Sensus dive logging software itself, you can enter your starting and ending pressure as inputs to calculate your actual SAC rate...

Indeed, it is a logger and not a computer, but the lack of pressure makes it a weak logger. My computer logs as well as computes. In fact, the software computes SAC automatically for each dive based on the pressure logging. If you have to input start and end pressure you have issues: 1) you have to remember the pressures that you read off a gauge, and 2) you have to enter them manually. You also have SAC errors as a result of BC equalizing, predive air checking, free flow, etc. In my dive log, I can pull out time, start and end pressures for a known period where I was neutral and only breathing, so the SAC calculation is uber accurate. As such, you are far better putting your money into a dive computer with logging functions, in my opinion.
