I already have a little Yamaha CBX-K1XG GM keyboard, designed with computer
users in mind.  It's staggeringly versatile for something that cost me $200
or so.  F'rinstance, I currently use it as the controller for my XL-7, AND
as the monitor.  (It has mildly decent stereo speakers and aux sound input,
as well as a local control shutoff.)
