Oh heck yeah....my mom just bought an imac all in one with a 21" screen.....the display on that thing is absolutely killer. (Plus she got a 1TB hard drive and 16gb ram....can you say "jealous"?) That thing was at least $1500.

But anyway....my dell netbook has a hideous screen....our Dell laptop that is currently not working has a better screen....but I would not want to read on either of them, that is for darn sure. (I do, now, want a bigger, better monitor for my desk top!)

Good quality tablets are much easier to read on, but I don't read PDFs. Get a Nexus 7, or if you like Apple, the newest ipad Mini would be the best choice, IMO. The size of the screen on that is perfect.
