Disklavier

Unfortunately, that won't work in our house.  We are a Windows home. 
My husband is a general manager of a software company and I also work
at a different software company.  Needless to say, there will be no
Macs in this home, even though I agree that for music they are
probably better.

Any Windows based ideas?
