Do you have to attach a mic when you use it? jeannie -----Original Message----- From: owner-pianotech@ptg.org [mailto:owner-pianotech@ptg.org]On Behalf Of Joseph Alkana Sent: Wednesday, December 26, 2001 5:08 PM To: pianotech@ptg.org Subject: Re: Reyburn RCT computer platforms. Rich, My current machine is an older Sony VAIO 505TS. Size is 10.2" x 0.87" x 8.2". At 2.69 lbs it finds a home just about anywhere on a piano, on a bench, chair, coffee table, floor, anywhere. If you can find one of these machines reconditioned I believe it will be well worth the price of usually less than $900. I never rely on the battery as using the customers electricity with an .89 cent extension cord serves me well. I'm curious as to why so many electronic tuners find it necessary to want their machines located right on top of them? They work just fine a few feet away if it makes it more convenient to place them that way for a given piano. Sometimes you have to move them around just to get a reading anyhow, so strapping one down with a cumbersome gizmo just doesn't seem handy to me. Of course we're all still * w a i t i n g * for RCT to be available in a handheld computer. Seems like the next logical machine for me. I'd put my beer down and go out in the shop to weigh my COMPAQ iPAC pocket pc on the gram scale, but it sure couldn't be very much. Now that will be portability and convenience!

I'm currently running RCT on a 15" Sony Vaio FX370 laptop and wish to find a smaller weight and screen size laptop for it. I wish to stay with the PC Windows systems. Your suggestions please? PCG-SR33K has been suggested. or the SR17. What is you favorite place to put the laptop when tuning? Have you invented a bracket that works?
