I'm going to take a stab and say because sperm and eggs arent necessarily perfused or containing capillary beds, and they arent in blood... hmmm? Doctors?

With hard case and v1.40 stable software. PC/Charging cables and neoprene pouch included too. Never dived it before, need the cash more than the computer all of a sudden. £580 Am currently touring UK, in Scotland at the moment. If you need any info, PM me -- Nemo

Good call Druid, good so see someone has their finger on the pulse.

There are some really good posters in this forum, great advice guys :) Uraluni, just remember that while you're with a good buddy, you can also use them as an underwater solid object if you know what I mean.

Alright, i was just trying to offer some advice, but now I have a few more counterpoints. I agree with you that buying your own wetsuit is a good buy, but not necessarily a top three purchase, and I wouldnt be buying a BC before regulators. You said calling regs life support systems is...

The age old question strikes again. And once again the answers have gone totally off track. And yes of course Walter, he's just here to collect cards, just like everybody else. I have so many they are propping up one leg of my dining table, being used as a door jamb and paint scrapers too. I...

Kell, Don't listen to anyone who tells you to buy a backplate/wing if you're not even AOW yet. You need to use a good standard gear configuration that other recreational divers will be familiar with and diving with themselves. My opinion? Get yourself a nice comfortable BC like a Mares...

Dan, Do you really need wireless? You're trusting electronics over tried and tested mechanics man :) Plus you're buying something with two HP ports for redundancy, thats fine, but you're increasing failure points buy having more coming out of your first stage. Wireless really is a lot of money...

Hey impulse, The Rover is a great reg, simple, easy/cheap to service, and solidly built to boot. The Apeks might cost you a little more to service because they are UK made, but is also a very simple hardworking regulator. My vote in your case would be the Rover for rubber coated second stage...

Hey there Xeptra, here's my two cents. If you're going for your first pieces of gear I would say get your mask, snorkel and fins. If you haven't already bought those they are essential. Quick(ish) lowdown... Mask - for a mask look for something that is good quality and sturdy construction...

Ha... Nice one Bronson :D I love that you're standing up for your daughter. But to be honest, that REALLY sounds like the typical sort of thing a 23 year old divemaster would say. Pink stitching sure makes it worth all that cash :P The pearl? t looks like the most expensive bra I've ever...

Great thread, and great answers guys. My girlfriend had what seemed at the time to be an undeserved skin bend on her stomach, and after a trans-esophageal echo it turned out she had a 2mm PFO, which was closed with an occluder. They chucked her on the anti-coags for 6 months but now all good now...

Thanks string... And I like the signature mate :) Sic em!

I'm open to whichever Shadow, I'm a red sea virgin and am interested to find out if decent diving is accessible from the shore or whether you have to go on a liveaboard. Honestly, whatever you recommend - within a reasonable budget as I'm touring europe first :) -- Nemo

Dearest Scubaboard Peers of Society, Because I have limited time to spend surfing at the moment and I'm a fast typer, I would rather throw a couple of questions out there. Pardon my laziness. 1) Hurghada or Sharm? I may do a little bit of technical diving but my other half is a...

Easy tiger ;)

This is a very in depth thread for a very simple answer :)

Crikey it's funny, such an old thread, but I have to have a laugh at it :) Yes yes all technical divers are egotistical, and all scubaboard geeks like hearing the sound of their own voices... or typing. Whatever. Heck, the only reason I'm here is to get my name changed to green! It's a real...

Terry, Sorry mate, wasn't trying to sound like a jacka--. I was thinking also that maybe the HW Open Source computer is for you then, you can program it to your heart's content! -- Nemo

Terry, I use vPlanner too, I'm just not rich enough to get a Liquivision X1 yet, which I bet you would trust to plan to dive on the fly as it runs V-Planner Live. Admittedly, it doesn't have a heart rate monitor, but hey you can't have everything right... And "IF you run out of air?"... don't...
