Are you even allowed to take a laptop into the arena with you? I thought the score tracker was for spectators.

A scouting program sounds like something more useful. You could have something asking questions about the team's robot like "Stacks boxes?", a slider for speed or torque from 1-10, a description of strategy and whether it's offensive or defensive, and some general comments, then store it all in a database so you can dig it up later. Maybe even include a snapshot of the team's robot.

P.S. The Kit of parts says "Microsoft, Visual Studio Net", so I guess it's the whole .NET shebang (version 7.0 if you want a number), most likely student edition, though.
