Ranjit and Geoff,

Bloody strokes - get yourself some decompression planning software and 
cut your tables. I thought Jeff Bentley killed this thread off when he 
last replied to this Ranjit bloke. The only advantage of a Nitrox 
computer is so that you can easily switch mixes when your lack of 
buoyancy causes you tox on your 80%.

Tables, depth gauge and watch - good enough thirty years ago - good 
enough now.

Geoff,

Prior to buying my nitek 3 I asked the list for a opinion. Everyone 
gave
the nitek 3 a big thumbs up. Having just returned from a trip to Truk
and Guam, and used the nitek 3 for all the diving I would recommend 
it.
It's is very easy to use.

Only advice I would have is that you do not buy the interface 
software.
They make a lot of claims about it, but the current version does not
work that well (uploaded dives that do not end, date format screwed 
up,
the sample dives supplied with the programme mess things up, the
interface to Dive Voyager is not implemented, you can't cut and paste
dives between log books, the list goes on) and besides the nitek only
holds the last 10 dives which is a problem when you're on a trip and
can't download them.

From what people tell me about the Nemesis, I think it would be
unreliable as a paperweight.

Hope that helps.

Ranjit
