With a book, you sit on your butt and play with words. Unhealthy (only healthy for your mind). Wait, so can playing with the internet be!

I hate reading on a laptop. You try reading from a laptop when you're in bed without waking your partner.

Actually, if I liked shiny stuff, I'd have the latest of the latest. Which I don't. I have a tablet which fits perfectly with my reading habits. And has some extra nice features which I started using after I got the tablet (I got it mainly for reading) such as a real pen and not one of those capacitive thingies. Which means I can use it to really write with, make notes, and easily highlight my books.

I hate shopping. That's why I try to do it twice a year, summer clothes and winter clothes. The rest of my shopping is mostly done online, from behind a PC, not my tablet. I think the screen is too small for easy shopping.

Yes, but the same as above, you try to bring you PC to the couch or bed.

And I do have a laptop. And I do have a PC. And I do have a tablet. I use each for what it was made: laptop for development, PC for games and general home internet use, tablet for reading, note taking, grocery shopping, and checking imdb/wikipedia while watching a movie on the couch. And most importantly, keeping contact with my mother (we wordfeud together and no, we cannot do a real game of scrabble, considering there's 1500km and three countries between us)
