I read a heck of a lot more on my Mac than my Kindle2. I have enough ebooks to last me a lifetime so I very very rarely buy an ebook off Amazon but download plenty of free books from everywhere I can get them. Most of my collection are CDroms or DVD sets that contain thousands of books, magazines, comics that were made to read off a computer, in color. I use my Kindle for simple fiction in MOBI.
I tend to use my Kindle in bed. I don't buy paperbacks anymore or even look for them at flea market. I do still buy those big coffee-table books with lots of pictures because I love them. Can I live without my Kindle, yes. Can I live without my computer, yes, but I would be very unhappy without it.
