> If Leonardo were alive today would he write his notebook by hand? Or would he adopt a modern a technology that would let him put down his thoughts and diagrams more expressively and precisely, that would allow better revision and better retrieval at a later date? I suspect he would choose the latter. I suspect he would choose the former. He could have dictated his thoughts to an assistant. He could have made his sketches more 'expressively' in oil on canvas. But he didn't. He chose to be alone with a notebook and get his thoughts out.
