Reading e-books on a computer screen, especially for pleasure, would seem like a step back to me, not forward.

It is very handy to open a eBook on a PC to make sure it is the one you are thinking about or to search it or for any number of reasons other than a replacement for your portable reader. The PC also sort and other organization tasks for your eBooks which allows you to manage them. They are much easier to manage if you can look at the contents.
