Mike Agreed, but to be fair, this is true of almost every piece of software or computer. Decoplan and GAP, excluded (there may be others). As a comparison to Decoplan, Proplan produces deco which very approximately corresponds to a GFLo of 70% and GFHi of 70%. I would expect that the VR3 is more "conservative" than this, although it supports non-mandatory deep stops - Pyle stops, I believe.

That's what I thought. I hate it when a computer specification says it uses "Modified Buhlmann", then doesn't tell you what the hell the modification is. It might as well not tell you anything; you'll still have the same amount of useful information. -Mike Rodriguez <mikey@mi*.ne*> http://www.mikey.net/aue Pn(x) = (1/(2^n)n!)[d/dx]^n(x^2 - 1)^n -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
