My university professors had a real thing for blackboards, even going out of their way to make a point to freshmen that in their department, blackboards would be the ruling medium of sharing ideas.

When our faculty got moved to a brand new building, it turned out that there where no old-school blackboards installed, only new digital ones. The math department were the only ones to screw down their trusty old boards, and bring them to the new building.

I thinks it's cute and all, but I simply can't go back to the old ways. Give me digital board, and I'll take that, any day of the week.

(Being a guitar player, it all reminds me of the analog / tube snobs that refuse to touch digital modelers)
