There is that. Often I'll get a call first thing in the morning while the computer is booting up. In that case, I'll take notes on scrap paper, then transfer them to OneNote. When I'm in a meeting I'll often take paper notes, then go to a restaurant and have breakfast or lunch and type up the notes while waiting for the food. This avoids the distraction of phone calls, e-mail and the Cellar, and I can expand on the notes while the meeting is still fresh in my mind.

I would recommend trying it. You can download the program and use it for free for 60 or 90 days (I don't remember which). That's plenty of time to decide if you want to continue using it.
