I don’t enjoy reading on a PC now, but when I got my first one and could access all those public domain books I’d never been able to find in bookstores, oh, I loved it then! Then I got a handheld and then an eink reader and the world of public domain as well as libraries and bookstores was my oyster. I wouldn’t read on one now.

As for looking up stuff while reading, I use Alexa a lot for that. Don’t have to put the reader down or even navigate away from the page. She’s easily good enough for the trivial, dates, locations, names etc. although obviously not for in-depth background.
