I have a developing vision problem and reading from a screen is recommended over reading a book. My first choice in a reader is going to have to be a screen size equal to at least a paperback , but preferably a book.
Is anybody familiar with the freeware program "ybook"? this seems to make any screen almost satisfactory, but then I run into the problem of weight. I think upto about 500 grams maybe even 750 grams might be lightweight enough. Anyone know of a laptop or notebook of that weight that might have the insides striped down to just a reader and viewer set of elements.
And for general information > has anzone run accross the program ABC Lite.
