Lee, if you'd simply answered his question this entire rant could have been
avoided, but, as is pretty standard here, you decided to piss all over his
gear selection. I would have expected better from you. I guess you've been
hanging around the rest of these idiots too long.

Shawn B., a good bottom timer, and knowledge of the dive tables, is all you
need. But, if all you're looking for is a back-up, this item will do you
fine. The store is not required, simply the item.

Not at all. I pissed all over its cost, well, except for the computer. I
think I might be justified in that since it failed only a few
months after he bought it new.
