I did most of my earlier reading in first class, on airplanes. Back when ereaders were not illuminated, airline spot lighting was a great feature on redeye flights.
The tradeoff between ereader vs. PC seems to hinge on whether a keyboard/mouse is needed for the reading task. Almost all technical reading (e.g., Spinors) requires a PC, and occasionally, a notepad. Research and criticism require search engines, and I prefer using real browsers on PC's and Macs, not Kindle Fire or Apple iPad devices. Kobo Plus has forced me to read some of their books on a PC, due to page turning speed and number of words that can be put on a screen. So many bad books, so little reading time to scan through the book and reach the story endings.

Our bed can be raised front or back or both, although the last is very uncomfortable. We got the bed because of my wife's health, but it does have other benefits.
