IMHO
	Making speculations and theorising about what may or may not have happened in
the case of the girl that got bent on a computer is ridiculous.
It's like reading and article about a car accident and all that the article
said was that the car was equipped with a digital speedometer, authorities
think that this may have had something to do with the crash.
There just wasn't enuf info given to make any kind of statement about this
indiincident.  In diving even with a computer there are too many variables to
make bbroad statements about what happened.  What was obvious to me was she
thought that she did not deserve to get bent.  IMHO and drawing from the data
available 
she did deserve to get hit.  Basic rules are do your deepest dive first then
the next deepest then the next She broke that rule. the second rule was know
you limits she obviously didn't as most new divers don't; it's not their fault
they just don't have the experience.  The third rule she broke was paln your
dive dive
your plan (from the report it sounded like she relied entirely on her computer)

Let me rephrase my original statement
	There just wasn't enuf info to make any kind of definitive statement as to why
she got bent. Let's not go and blame her computer.
