Do you read ebooks on your computer?

    I am usually printing every single ebook I buy, I just don't prefer reader 50+ pages on my computer.

    What about you?

    At the moment, I am about to read one that's 144 pages, and I wish I didn't need to print it. But I prefer paper to the screen.

    Ebook is ok but I prefer a real book, it is much easier for me to read a real book.

    Well I dont buy eBooks they are a huge waste of money. But if there is a long article I want to read I will print it off if I can.

    I read them on my PDA. The idea is to save paper. Not to waste MORE than buying a real book by printing it out yourself.

    I rarely print the ebooks. I read them from the monitor, especially after long hours of browsing...

    I read it on screen. If the ebook has more than 100 pages, I'll separate it into a few reading times. Not gonna spoil my eyes by reading on the screen too long. :p

    I don't like to read ebooks on my computer. I prefer them to be printed on a typewriting.

    I do not like reading e-books unless and until I am absolutely required to do so....

    I find it really frustrating and boring...I would instead prefer to read a real book. I even like the smell of paper of those big big books.....:eek:

    Depend on the thickness of the ebooks. If it over 100 pages, I wil print it out.

    What software do you use to read ebook on PSP?
