Congrats, you wouldn't be Jerry's brother-inlaw by chance?
Not so far as I know
Thanks, everyone, for the warm welcome.

Hello Dan, congrats on the purchase. I noticed you dived with a Prism diver before making the decision. Seeing how easy it is to dive the unit is a definite selling point.
It was an important selling point for at least two reasons. First, being able to see the unit, talk to the diver (as well as divers using other models) and, since she is my buddy, learn something about the functionality, redundancies and failure modes, helped me make up my mind. Second, the idea of gear standardization appeals to me.

And I don't know about anybody else, but I needed every damn minute of the 9 month wait for my unit to earn enough money to pay for it... -Andy
Yeah, that was a real kicker.
