Some things are easier up on a board or, I prefer, graph paper. But, given that you're still doing it by hand and head, you still in academia? I kind of expected to remain in academia and ended up modeling traffic instead. I am happily retired now, I have been for almost eight years. What field are you in, if you don't mind my asking?
I'm in Theoretical Computer Science, specifically Computational Geometry, PhD.
I did a bit of Software Engineering in the past, for a company, but even then I would always scribble on paper to map out the design before I would write a program.

Everyday. I'm a mathematician, we hate using computers.
