Well, I vote for pencil :). That said, I start with a pencil and paper (or
whiteboard) to help me understand things at a high level and then move to
writing specs. My primary design tool for detail design is a TDD framework.

modelling tools are very important that can generate platform specific

2. It doesn't cause those splotches in your hand

Nothing beats a clean white sheet of paper and a nice pen for me. No
