When I was in graduate school way back in the 90s, I had an old dot matrix printer that I would use to print out the daily RFE / RI (Radio Free Europe) email news reports from Eastern Europe.

Its a huge waste of resources over time, but I find its much easy to focus and take in the information sitting at a table and reading over printed word.

I wonder if e-ink / paper devices might be able to replicate this now.
