I have a ring binder book where I print out my session notes, including monster stats. That I have laying flat on the table. For newer systems I also include a cheat sheet for the most important rules (or page numbers in the rule book!). Maps etc. I don't like having a wall between me and my players.
It's interesting, it seems like most people don't use one based on this thread.
For me the wall isn't the point, I just like the idea of not using a laptop. I already spend a lot of time on the computer.
