I agree with you completely. The only paper I am keeping are copies of documents that I have received in the mail or I went to a courthouse to get (though I try to take digital pictures of courthouse documents)

I used to print a great deal and file it all in 3-ring binders. After switching to Legacy some years back I found myself printing less and less. Now I rarely print anything at all. There are many reasons for going paperless, but I think a major factor in the change has been Legacy itself. My old software was clunky to navigate and had far fewer features. I believe that anyone who learns to use Legacy to its fullest potential can see a way to do without most of that paper. And if you have your data on a portable device you don't need to haul binders along on research trips either. Filing is a pain, and the binders, dividers, and ink get expensive.. Much better to do with less.
