The inventor of one of the defining products in the home computer revolution has come out and admitted that he doesn't actually use a computer anymore. What's more, he has his emails read to him (so make sure you don't SHOUT in your electronic mails to the man).

Although his later work (the C5 electric vehicle...thing) wouldn't hit the big time, the ZX80/81 sold in enough numbers to encourage a number of users into the computing space in the 80's, and he was duly knighted for his contributions to electrical development.

Any specific reason for not using a computer now? He claims he can't be bothered and the entire process now is a nightmare - and for the most part I'd say that a lot of people would agree with him.
