In high school and col­lege, any stu­dent with­out a 24/7 lap­top can­not hope to keep accu­rate notes on a lec­ture course. Kate Glad­stone, a hand­writ­ing spe­cial­ist based in Albany, esti­mates that while a stu­dent needs to jot down 100 leg­i­ble words a minute to fol­low a typ­i­cal lec­ture, some­one using print can man­age only 30. “That’s fine for class,” she said, “if the class is first grade.”Samuel G. Freed­man, “Back to the Basics of a Leg­i­ble Hand,” The New York Times, Jan­u­ary 19, 2005

So that’s my prob­lem! I don’t have a “24/7 laptop!”
