[QUOTE="Malacoda, post: 4639239, member: 6345"] I have ran most of my games in the last four years or more from a laptop. Currently it's a MacBook, here soon it will be a 17" MacBook Pro. The laptop screen is the DM screen, I use Excel for tracking initiative and damage, Word or PDF for monster stats, and PDFs of the various books I use. I use a dice rolling program to roll d20s. The program I use is a pain to switch dice types, but otherwise I like it, so I just roll d20s with it, and use the dice of whomever sits to my right for other dice needs. Until recently that was my girl friend, and she would get mad because I generally rolled better with her dice than she did. :D I have had to try to run a game without the laptop since then, and I really missed the ease and convenience of the laptop, programs and well-bookmarked PDFs. Plus, I love being able to close the laptop when getting into more pure RPing situations where dice were less relevant. It easier than dropping a DM screen. [/QUOTE]
