A Disklavier IS a "proper piano" in every way, first and foremost. It also happens to have a computer installed inside of the mechanisms that make it both record and playback piano performances. As a teaching tool, it enables you to have a piano teacher somewhere in the world and not necessarily in your neighborhood, by email even, and the ability to play multi-hand piano pieces by yourself. I find the mechanisms are very quiet and often undetectable. Best thing to do is go look and play some at a store and decide for yourself if you would like to own one. You will certainly never find a "real" piano that is more fun, and it certainly won't be sitting in your home gathering dust from lack of use! Carol Beigel
