I've decided to make a winter project out of building a suunto vyper interface to download my dives. I know this has been covered before on YD and I have tried a search but failed to find anything. Can anyone more computer literate help?

Save yourself a lot of grief and buy a Sensus Pro instead - downloads to anything

It's a dive recorder - a little black box that records your dive and can be downloaded to anything with a serial port. Or rather, anything that has or can have an adaptor to have a serial port.

I bought one myself when every interface I put together for my pooter laughed at me and refused to work.

If you're dead set on having the Suunto interface, tho, take a look at these:
