We write all over the mat, using it for terrain, maps, notes, etc.  It's written on and erased many times in a session.I often have dungeon tiles that I throw down for significant items on the map that require better artwork than I can provide (and I can't provide much).I also have cardboard counters from Dungeon mags, but the minis are a lot more fun.I've tried the laptop at the table thing several times, but it just doesn't work for me. The initiative cards from Game Mechanics help alot with ordering inits.As someone else hinted, our spellcasters use note cards or stickies for spell effects. So when the buffs come on-line, they stick them up for all to see.</blockquote>
