Amazon has the Schwinn computers, too. I hear the bracket can let the computer fall out, though. I haven't tried it myself, though. I have one still sealed in its package.

I don't know how waterproof the no-name unit is.

The patent on the chip behind these must have worn out. Anyone can make a bike computer nowadays. That's why you can get them so cheap. I don't know why I'd pay more than $15 for a basic computer. At my LBS, they are $40, minimum.
