Twice I have seen Delphi's read exactly 1000PSI high.  Once, this was not 
a problem because it happened when the computer was first turned on,
"Wow, 4400 PSI!!," but the second case happened during a dive, resulting 
in a VERY experienced diver running out of air, fortunately in shallow water.
I have never personally seen a analog guage get stuck or read more then a 
couple hundred PSI high, but then again I've never worked in a dive shop.
