Hi All,

Just wondering how many of you who use software to record their log's
use anything other that MS Windows PC's....

Rgds,

Dave.

Some of us have been around long enough that we still use stone tablets
for logging our dives -- IF we even bother logging them, of course...

   Or a pen and booklet.

   Yeah, still like to keep a tally, makes it easier to re-certify at the
least, and like to keep tract ot the total just because I have kept an
accurate count.

Damn new-fangled contraptions...

Well, I can't have an accurate tally since I dove for 20+ years without
keeping track of them... It didn't make sense to start just because I
finally broke down and got a C-card... Then again, I'm not a GUE-type person
like you -- just in case you didn't figure that out while we were cobbling
together that sidemount rig at Lowes / Home Depot that night...

   Probably not, if you dove at my frequency that would put you at well
over 1200.  I was just a later entry and started with a certification.
Figure it's given me a fast track on experience though, bypassing most of
the trial and error stage, letting Darwin teach by proxy.  Was gonna stop
bothering after I had the training I wanted, but since it's easy enough to
just keep counting and I still wanna 'nother piece of plastic......
Anyways, never saw a computer based log I liked, and as far as using a
website, I'm too private a person to wanna do that.

   Damn, I knew there was something different, is that what it was?
Figured it was just a good attempt to keep those tanks in the bands.  Did
look better than Blue's rigging, the slidemounts.   ;-)

Yeah, we didn't exactly have enough raw materials to work with on that first
dive at Blue... It definitely was a cludged up hobbled together
'solution'... Oh well, as I always say, do whatever it takes to make it
happen...

I'm not looking to buy any software, just hoping to get a feel of how
many of you use Mac's or Linux based machines.
