I admit I hadn't considered using paper quite so big. I also should say that I really don't like arguing, but I feel I should clarify some things:
Some people feel like prototyping with a computer discourages changing your mind about a particular layout or interaction. I don't feel that way. It's a lot easier for me to click on something and press "Delete" than erase with a pencil, or worse, start the whole page over on a new piece of paper. Boy, do I hate duplicating effort. All that being said, I do enjoy using a whiteboard when I'm _just starting to generate ideas_ as a part of a group who is in the room with me. Overall, I think HTML prototypes are a better use of my time, and I feel like I'm still able to remain loose and open. Regarding the admittedly less important argument over wasting electricity: it's likely that your computer is going to be running whether you're paying attention to it or not, so I figure I might as well be paying attention to it. If you have the discipline to turn off the electronics when focusing on paper, then that's awesome. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
