I'm assuming you dive tables and wheel because a non-AI DC is a high tech electronic device with the same failure points as the AI one, sans the pressure sensor and bluetooth. That's your choice and I'm sure it's appropriate for the kind of diving you do.
No, it's more like this.
OP: I am looking for advice on a computer.
Post 2: Buy a Petral, there is no other computer
Post 3: But it isn't AI, I want AI
Poster 4: If you buy anything but a Petral, you are buying a piece of crap and AI is only sold as a point of failure and while you're at it, buy a BP/W. You aren't a real diver if you buy anything else. PADI sucks.

Post 115: Should I buy the big spare air or the litle one?
It's fun, not a something to get your shorts in a knot over.
I use 2 PDC's but ultimately put my trust in USN air tables, no wheel that's for shmucks. I only trust these devices so far. Anyone that puts to much trust in such devices had better have a good measure of luck on their side sooner or later they are going to need it. You know what they say about ass-u-me.

Yes, the level of passion on this subject is hard to fathom.
