It seems that someone is always thinking of the next big thing in computers.  I was very happy and surprised when I started looking at pool related material online.  One of the coolest things I found was swimming pool software designed to help homeowners plan for the installation of their very own custom swimming pool on their property.

Personally, I'm sticking with an above ground model for the time being, but if I was seriously thinking about going to the effort and expense of putting in a model below ground level, I'd be very tempted to go with the software.  Making up designs and then trying out other options on your computer, is a lot less expensive  than trying to adjust things on the fly for a real life project.
