Mike Brock was forced (inasmuch as one can be forced online) to give a ruling, so he gave a conservative ruling that puts us all on a level playing field. He never claimed that you can't use Hero Lab at the table. All he said was you are required to have a paper character sheet. Since you are also required to have your paper chronicle sheets with you in order to play your character (another ruling that was forced by people who couldn't leave well enough alone), it's not an undue burden to also have a printed copy of your character in the same folder/notebook/bound volume.

The reason the discussion was axed when it was, is because people are too hard headed to let sleeping dogs lie. That thread was heading toward "forcing" a ruling on electronic additional resources. I can guarantee you Brock would have ruled the same way, requiring a printed, watermarked copy of the page your character uses to be carried with your printed character sheet and printed chronicles. If that's not what people want, then they should quit poking the bear.
