Hello,
After reading over this issue of Dans magazine on accident stats I couldn't help but notice some rather interesting data. This is the section in question.
From this data it SEEMS to me that use of computer usage will be more liable to get you bent over tables. Even lower odds if you are in a group dive and following an instructor/DM and NOT using either tables or computers.
In conclusion is it time to start calling dive computers bend-O-matics?

After reading over this issue of Dans magazine on accident stats I couldn't help but notice some rather interesting data. This is the section in question.
Dive computer uses continued to increase over previous years, with 73% of the injured divers reporting using them. 20% used dive tables, and 7% reported following a guide or dive instructor, using neither computer nor tables
