Haltech computer or custom prom burning?

Which would be easier and offer more control? I've got to repin my harness for an 86+ computer, and by the time I buy the new computer and all of the prom burning software, I'll be at the same price as a Haltech computer. Anybody running this piece? Comments, suggestions?

I vote for a SD conversion to the 7730 ECM. All OEM components, readily availible. Easy to tune IMHO.

Used SD 7730 ECM -50
Used MAP sensor -10
Knock Sensor -39
Memcal -50
Used Laptop -75
Scan Software -free
Scan Cable -35
Pocket Burner -150
29C256 EEPROM -5
TunerCat -90

Total -$504

Haltech -695
used laptop -75
Used Map -10

Total -$780
