George, best bet is a matt-screen laptop with a cover blocking out the top and sides, imho it works quite well, but it seems harder and harder to find non-glossy screen laptops. Lenovo still makes them, don't know of others. Glare screen cover…

What browser are you using? We tested now with firefox and internet explorer, both worked fine. You did notice the captcha also? But if you do not get it to work, just send an email to sales@phoenixflightsystems.com. Regards Jesse

Thanks for the update. I actually was thinking about using it for my work where I need an easy upfront status display (NTSC) for our development vehicle which uses CAN for instrumentation (dspic has two CAN i/f's). I also need an IMU. This board seemed to come close for all that. I also have dspic tools and am familiar with it. All bonus points going for me on this board.
