Very funny. I'm annoyed that the author thinks it's faster to take notes on a laptop though. I can write faster than you can type any day. How is this possible? Because notes are more than text. Don't forget to subtract the time wasted on booting, charging, fiddling, surfing, etc. Also the time wasted by whoever earned the money to buy your overpriced electronic typewriter. Admit it. What was the justification for a laptop in college? To write papers and/or take notes - the same justification used for the last twenty years. Yeah, yeah, it's nice to get web content and there's classroom content now online. Desktops aren't portable blah blah. There was always the computer lab, even 20 years ago, you didn't need your own computer and I just got another bachelors degree a few years ago. tried using a laptop to take notes. Bleh - it's too slow. Tried onenote, still too slow. Pen and paper is still the best UI.
