You gotta love this!
Shearwater is touting a new capability called DiveTrak in collaboration with Solardyne.
So here's the state of the art photo:

And the first stage that the new equipment is demo'ed with?
A 40-year-old Scubapro Mk10!!!

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Probably used it because it was laying in the shop while the mk2 was out diving

it needs some grease and a Rob inner tube treatment.

That’s Sonardyne Dr Old Guy. I see that your eyes are going too.

Old? Affirmative.
Eyes are fine. Brain, not so much.

Ah yes, I love the MK10. Easy to service, once you know the process. I had some MK25s sitting around for about a year that I just didn't get around to switching to until I forced myself to leave the MK10s at home, and only go to the dive-site with the MK25s.

I may not be an old guy yet, but I hope to be so one day. "Back when I was a kid, we didn't have the internet, and computers were slow and expensive." Ok, I think I just dated myself, and maybe I am getting old.

Did you, too, start with an Atari?

Had to put my readers on, but is that a Dive Rite manifold?

Puhleez. In high school I was reprogrammng my mother’s washing machine in 6800 Assembler. Then onto a Univac 1106 in Fortran. I was subsequently taught Pascal by Niklaus Wirth. (Before that, we used LISP).

When I first came to the US, we were taught B at Bell Labs; Used that to create an OS for smartcards which subsequently became SIM cards. (Only had 2K of address space). Those were the days!
