> I guess you'd also just dismiss Harlan Ellison, Woody Allen, Isaac Asimov and the dozens of other writers who prefer to use a typewriter over a modern computer as "old cranks"...

They used typewriters in the 1980s, maybe some into the 1990s, when 
typewriters were still common. You're talking about the Model 100 which 
is now a 34-year-old computer. Big difference.
