From reading the copy editors' mailing list, I know that some people are more accurate and productive when they edit on screen, and some when they edit on paper. I don't think it's just a matter on getting used to the new method, because the two are very different experiences, and it makes sense that people would differ in their reactions. I took to on-screen editing the first time I tried it, and I am both faster and better at on-screen editing than hard-copy editing.
