If you really want to be hyper-conservative (most computers are pretty darn conservative already), you could always use a table on the boat to plan your next dive, while assuming you dived a square profile. The computer would then be a tool for making sure you stay within your planned dept and ascent rate.
In the end, it's your decisions on how to deal with the information tables or the computer give you that determines your conservatism.
Very good point.

Thanks for the recommendations. Quick question: I do not own my own reg. If I bought a computer and rented a reg, would the dive shop I rented at normally remove their SPG and plug mine into the first stage?
Is this something relatively common or is the shop going to give me some grief about it?
