pring books on desk showing affection for print versus kindle reading

I read recently that Amazon is now selling more e-books than actual, print books.  That’s an amazingly quick time for this new phenomenon to happen, isn’t it?  Heck, I kept my VCR for years before switching to DVDs.  For that matter, I held onto my 8-track for years before succumbing to cassettes.  … [Read more...] about I Still Like Real Books
