I suspect there is a return to the old ways underway. I recently had a carpenter in to quote for some work on my house. He has no email or internet presence, and I suspect no computer although he is quite young, well educated and obviously working regularly so his business could afford it. When I arrived home today there was a letter on the doorstep addressed in copperplate handwriting in proper fountain pen ink. It was his estimate, which he had typed with an obviously old, well-worn typewriter - and definitely not a computer font like I sometimes use. I'm inclined to give him the work just because his typewriter's so cool.
