yes ,actually there are two display screens that interrupt the beauty of the
wood .

the wooden Mephisto computers overcome this by having the program and display
modules in a pull out drawer that can be tucked away so as to not  interfere
with the cosmetics of the board
but if you want to see any of the computers info,then you have to pull out the
drawer  and the beauty of the unit is compromised
