Yeah, so do a lot of people. To equip a club with a laptop, printer, DD software, wireless enabled scoring program, dealing machine, bridgemates/pads is over five grand sterling. This is a LOT of money for a small club to find and can be a struggle for a medium sized one without some keen got-bags benefactor.

Our little once-a week club has done it. We also offer free tea and coffee. It's not hard to do.

Perhaps I should have said that it is hard to do when many in the club do not see the point of technology and would rather that the AGM voted for a reduction in the membership fee than spending any excess of 'new fangled rubbish'.
Perhaps I am being unfair - I am slowly winning the argument - but it is an uphill selling game.
