Two air-integated computers?

For the amount of money you'd have to spend, you could buy a laptop PC and
software to cut tables on it. You'd also have a platform for other useful
things, like a dive log and looking up weather bouy information. A much
better use of the money, IMO.

.... and the deco it calculates as a resutl being COMPLETELY wrong (not
that any deco it calculates would necessarily be correct to begin with).

So, you're telling me you have to tools to cut custom tables and only use
them as a backup? Where is the logic in that?
