Guilty as charged... I have RCT on a new 14.5" screen Toshiba. (i.e. large print edition... ;-} ) Note: that's larger than my home TV screen. If I ever buy a DVD, I'll watch it on my laptop. 8-}}} No internal mike, so I need to plug one in, but I still can set the 'puter up to 8' away on a convenient table, chair, other piano or even the floor and see quite well. For grands, I usually set it up on the short sticked lid. I have different colo(u)rs for the spinner for fine tune and pitch raise, and some available hues are _really_ easy to see. I've also cut down the propellor blade to 30° so that the "blush" is really dramatic/easily seen. my 2¢. Conrad Hoffsommer Chi si ferma è perduto.
