Another way I've graded papers is to accept them as email attachments and then use the track change and comment features of MSW. This is a fast method for me, although I have to stare at the screen for a long time. I insert comments and suggestion throughout the paper and then when I am done I can write the longer global comment with the grade very quickly. After I make all the local comments I know exactly what to say about the paper as a whole.
I work fast, but I am very detailed. My students were amazed once when I returned their papers two days later, but with very extensive comments.
