Is that available as an ebook?

You can buy it for your computer, as I did for several years before the Wikipedia was available at a better price (free). And you can copy and paste the articles, so it should be a simple matter for folks to pay the bucks, copy everything to their word processor article at a time, and feed it to calibre for conversion to a form suitable for their readers. If we all download the Britannica and start start now, we should be finished with our individual projects and ready to discuss it oh, say ... around 2099.
