Generally speaking you are absolutely right.
Nevertheless I think he just wanted to know if the Puck meets his requirements...
Don't be silly. He wants to pay more for not-a-puck, he just doesn't know it yet.

I know there is much fancier and more expensive equipment, but, from what I've read, it seems like this one will get the job done and has all of the features I need. However, given my ignorance about dive computers, any advice would be appreciated. It seems like Mares is a popular and reputable brand. Is there any reason to consider a different brand? Other than more bells and whistles, are there reasons why I should consider a more expensive brand or model?!
That's a great deal, Geo2 is a great computer, would easily choose it over the DG03. DSAT is a good liberal decompression algorithm choice. I dived a Geo2 backup to my VT3 (Oceanic version of the DG03) for 5 years.On leisurepro, I just added a pricewatch for the Geo 2.0 on Sat. and received an email this morning with a $100 price reduction to $250. Immediately snatched it up. Definitely worth it to give them a call, instead of ordering straight online.

Does the Mares Pro Plus come with the download cable?... but if you ever want to download your logs, you need to add another $90 for the cable, so the TCO on this is more like $350.

Puck Pro is good enough for any recreational divers. .
