Sunrise is important for circadian rythms and sanity. It is the most wonderful part of the day and you shouldn't have to stay up all night on the 'puter as an excuse just to see it.
External video capture of the sunrise is replayed on your PC or a wall LCD or even projected against the surface of your choice (ceiling?)
Benefits: New pretty image every day and you don't have to waken early to enjoy it!
Pull the curtains and set the projector to start at your preferred hour of awakening.

       Wasn't it Archimedes who said, "Give me big enough light and a place to stand, and I'll give you sunrise whenever and wherever you want it."?

       The philanthropist who handed out suckers to kids because, he said, "There's one born every minute I'm unhappy."?
