I use both the Avid BCD and Wisdom computer. The Avid is pretty loaded with features - weight integration, lots of D-rings and large zippered pockets; it also has a pocket to hold a small marker float. The Wisdom is a nice large screen computer which allows you to get all required information at a glance.

If price is no object then these are great choices for gear. If you are just becoming certified try to use different makes/models of gear as you are getting trained if your LDS allows; this will allow you to determine for yourself what gear feels comfortable.

Hope this information helps out.
