I've always GM'd with my laptop, never used a screen, but I like the idea of it more and more.

I was just curious what people put on there? What do you consider essential and what has come in handy for you?

For reference I run Call of Cthulhu so especially interested in that, but I've also done DND so really just curious in general.

For something less rules-y? Maybe a PDF of the rules, or multiple copies if I need quick reference to several places.
