I had really low-spec hardware during my IT education; think netbook. I used to take notes during class as well as do most of my assignments in "markdown".
Everything was exported to fairly decent LaTeX which in turn created a homogenous looking of PDFs.
Shifting tables around? Adding source code snippets? Running inputs through bash scripts before exporting? Easy.
A colleague initially chucked this my way.
