My brain evidently prefers and functions like yours in this regard  ;)

Another good example is needle pointer index camera meters. I much prefer them to all the colored lights etc.

Cheers,
Lee

" .... Give me an analog needle I can look at instead of numbers to read on a digital readout. Must be how my brain works. The meaning of a needle position on a scale can be visually processed and comprehended faster than reading numbers sequentially on a display. Akin to the difference between serial and parallel ports on a computer and it's the same reason I have analog dial clocks and watches. A quick glance is all that's required to comprehend time of day....."
