Urgent : What Computer To Get

I've just found that my cochran commander+ is dead (well the batteries were flat and its now corrupted - so toast)

As I need to get another computer before my Red Sea holiday on Saturday, what do people suggest ?

I need :-

something with large ish display (cannot get on with Suunto's ascent graph)

nitrox


many thanks

TonyD.

Based on what you've said, try to get an Aladin One.
They're are now cheap as chips at £90 in some places, but are discontinued with all supplier stocks exhausted so you'll not get one on back order, but as you need it by Saturday it's not an issue for you.

The main disadvantage is that you can only change the Nitrox setting via IrDA, fine if you take a laptop with you or you only plan to dive on, say 32%,but a bit of a PITA otherwise.

worst case scenario - this holiday only (almost certain to be giving up diving)

many thanks
