While dead trees do lack a certain finesse, I got sick of peering over
at my monitor all the time while assembling circuits, knocking the mouse
when the screensaver kicked in, etc. Now I assemble all the useful
schematics into pages of circuits and data, print it, and stick it in a
clear-pocket-leaf folder. The only problem is the occasional reprint is
called for when I want to change things, otherwise it's great :-)
I'm the luddite that keeps the paper industry in business :-)
