“If books had been invented after the computer, they would have been considered a big breakthrough. Books have several hundred simultaneous paper-thin, flexible displays. They boot instantly. They run on very low power at a very low cost.”
Prof. Joseph M. Jacobson, MIT Media Lab,
quoted in the N. Y. Times, Apr 8, 1988, page B2.
While I thoroughly enjoy the internet (obviously, LOL) I dont enjoy reading e-books. I love the feel of a book in my hands. I like to be able to flip through the pages. I enjoy its mobility. Funny, huh? :)
