Well.........not so much. I have very little disposable income. I saved long and hard to pay for my toy.

Lots of the people on the Amazons discussions forums are older, on fixed incomes, and rave about the ease of reading on one because of health issues, arthritis, etc.

I do not travel....who the hell can afford it anymore.

I'm okay with computers, but only mine.......and then I have to be dragged kicking and screaming from under the table to try downloading new scripts and running them......ask Leep.

People who make such broad assumptions about other people..................really shouldn't.
