I use mechanical. Its much easier, and less work. Unsharpened pencils inspire laziness in me.

No doubt about it, there's SOMETHING about them that is unlike ANYTHING else.

The sharpening of them is like actual work accomplished and it is pleasurable in and of itself. And then there's the smell of the freshly shaved wood. Hmmm!

Yes, quite nice.
Give petty people just a little bit of power and watch how they misuse it! You can't silence the self doubt, can you?

A newly engineered pencil spells something great.

I've always been a fan of Pencil OS version 2.0. I use it all the time in high school, though it would always crash and I'd have to re-boot the system. Plus the lack of a built in spell checker really sucked.
