Hudson,
Yes, anyone who ever thought that computers would lead to that Utopian ideal of a 'paperless office' sure got that one wrong. It's like drawing-less manufacturing. If plotters had remained as large as small machine tools and their cost stayed in the $60K to $100K range like they were when I got into this business (which was 32 years ago next month), we'd have done away with drawings years ago, BUT NOOOOO....HP had to go and offer that first 8-pen, $9,000 D-sized plotter back in the mid-80's and killed forever the idea of doing away with drawings. The only way to the get rid of something is to make so expensive that no one is willing to continue paying the cost of doing it.
