Newb...looking for a Dive Computer

[matt t.]

Everyone has different priorities, but as a new diver I wanted (and got) my own reg first. Then I bought my own wetsuit (why swim in someone else's pee?) and b.c. A computer was really one of the last things I bought (for my 1st rig). If you really only plan to dive a handful of times a year, don't buy anything. Rent it all and return it when you are done. No storage, no maintenance, and no depreciation.
