I can do normal math in my head.  When I start needing tools, paper and pencil are the only things that really help.  Realistically, though, I probably wouldn't bother with matrix algebra or manifold transformations without a computer.

Hubby just does it in his head.  I use my fingers or paper.  It's that left/right brain thing again.
