If you do get a computer make sure you get with someone beforehand and have them explain timekeeping until it sinks in or your computer will be useless to you.

I did one enduro last summer. I thought I had the time thing figured out, but the minute the race started my timekeeping went out the window. I had a Trailtech Endurance and it was basically useless because I didn't understand resets etc. I really didn't have a clue but still managed to finish without being DQed by coming in too early or late anywhere. I subsequently knocked the thing off in a crash somewhere and have not replaced it.

The "actual" enduro computers like ICO, Watchdog, Pacemaker can be programmed to do some of the figgerin' for you. I still don't "get" timekeeping...
