I have the S-950, and the only time I saw a 970 the display was even easier to read. Also, as for the tabs, they are readable when highlighted.

Donny, I never had a problem playing when I tilted the keyboard(s). Didn't have to tilt them very much to see everything on the display. Just a few degrees did the job. You must really sit a lot lower than I do while performing. I thought I recall you saying that you just use one of the chairs where you happen to be playing? That may have something to do with it. I use the Quick Lock stool, which is probably a foot or more higher than a regular chair.
