  I have often been asked why I don't use [Word Processors], and my honest answer has always been that there is for me so much to write that I cannot afford the use of these time-saving devices.

Like Berry, Dijkstra took the existence of menial labor for producing printed or typed products for granted, although, to be fair, for much of his writing (letters and research notes), his longhand was supposed to be the final form, and he had very legible handwriting.

I also have problem recording my thoughts using a computer, writing by hand is more convenient for my brain than using a pc to write the sketch, math symbols and everything else it's just too convenient compared to any note taking device on a pc or tablet.

I think he found something about handwriting to be more natural for the manuscripts he wanted to write. A good pen and paper note taking system can allow freer more direct expression than some sort of editor program.

His typewriter broke. It was customized with symbols and couldn't be easily substituted with a new replacement.
