Question Diving Computers: Air integrated vs non-air integrated

Fishing for opinions here:

I am currently diving with the Aeris Atmos 2 wrist computer. I originally bought it because it was the cheapest option for a dive computer, the only bummer I thought back then is that it doesn't tell you how much air you have remaining. Come to find out that alot of divers out there who wear a non-air integrated dive computer actually prefer it. Like me they dive with a standard guage and the computer. They enjoy the redundancy this provides. I've come to love the Atmos 2 wrist computer for it ease of use, affordable price, etc. I've also realized I like using it as a companion to the SPG. So my orginal opinion changed. I like the non-air integrated computers.

So, just curious what you all use, why you like the computers you have, etc.

I just started using a console mounted computer, Oceanic Veo 100, with an analog SPG. Once I figured the thing out, I dont think I will be switching back to all analog. I think that having a seperate SPG from the computer provides a margin of safety in the event there is a problem with an air intergrated computer and you loose the ability to monitor air pressure.
