I think I got it just _before_ it was available on Palm/Pocket/etc. ;-{ ,but never felt the need to switch over to the smaller format. I'm too cheap to replace something which is working, my whole office is with me and the munchkins (and I) like my vacation slide show screen saver when I'm not using the tuning program. ;-} I did knock it off a console, once, but all I lost was the :; key. No big loss. About the only thing I use is the touchpad, anyway. Re: Aural over-ruling the program. As I understand, every program (certainly RCT) is written with certain assumptions and interpolations. If you can't aurally discern and deal with discrepancies betwixt interpolations and idiosyncratic reality, you are doing the piano, customer and yourself a disservice and deserve the Steinway curse.
