I've been reading as much as I can about the Versa Pro, but I'm starting to wonder about it's algorithm. In several reports it has beeen suggested that the algorithm is particularly incautious. In the latest divernet tests

It seems to indicate that it can give you excessively long times at your shallow stop.
As I'm new to computers, and this is going to be my first, I'm trying to figure out just what the algorithms are telling me, and why one computer would be better than another.
I read on the board that Suunto are considered about the most cautious out there, and generally cautious is a good thing, but you can have too much of a good thing sometimes.
Are there any good sites/pages that I can look through to try and make more sense out of this.
I've been considering the Versa Pro, I like it's displays and controls, I like the ability to alter the cautiousness, to make it fit the way I want to dive, but I worry that I'm not sufficiently knowlegable to make those sorts of decisions.
Any advice gratefully received,
J.
