I don't know about CAD, but I do know that the computer is miles ahead in productivity in graphic arts. Step and repeat is one example, imposition is another. Heck, I used to be a poor artist because I tended not to paste up things straight. I never make that mistake on a computer. It used to take years of practise with a speedball pen to be able to line forms. A rookie can do it with Illustrator (although the rookie will have to be copying an existing form). I can think of very few places where "the old ways" are better. Some handset letterpress books have a nicer feel, perhaps. But overall the computer has been a major boon to the industry.
