I would have to say 2 things
1- looks like they like to rent computers
2- they hate almost everything but Dive Rite
maybe still some radiation there

keep in mind that these guys are doing multi-gas, stage decompression dives
in 170 to 190 feet of water.

most recreational computers out there can't handle this sort of diving, and will
lock you out if you exceed certain parameters.

so... their list is NOT a reflection of recreational diving computers
