Off the subject of Blue Angel but on the subject of Suunto, early on my my use of a Vyper I went into deco by surprise while other divers had no deco issue on the same profile. However, I think they are really sensitive to ascent rate. Since then I've used by a Vyper and a Cobra 3, and nitrox, and I ascend REALLY slowly. In those circumstances I have rarely if ever had to shorten a dive due to deco time rather than air time on an AL80, and this includes 5 dives per day at 80-90 feet on a live aboard. My SAC is reasonable for a guy my size and age - 0.45 CF/min in warm water and 0.60 on cold water wrecks - but it may be that someone with a 0.35 SAC rate would find that a Suunto computer limits their dives.
