True, but with the Nook Color at least, you could not sideload books from the SD Card. You had to mount the NC and drop the books into a particular location on main storage, or they would never get into your Library.

Now, as I ponder the reality of multiple-profiles on a Nook HD, "security", etc, and the requirement of at Least Windows Media Player 11 to communicate with the Nook HD's main storage, I'm thinking that if this ends up in my house, I'll either need to drop non-DRM'ed books on the SD Card (which never worked before in NookLand), or teach him to use Dropbox in the browser.

(And I say this after having found the User's Guide online. It's still not clear.)
