I just bought a hard-cover book - the first one in about three years. Mind you, I get lots of books (Amazon loves me :), but for several years now they have been almost exclusively eBooks...
So why now? I just read about an interesting book: 100 Diagrams That Changed the World, and it's not available as an eBook. Most of the time when that happens, I just wait for the eBook to come out, and it generally does fairly quickly. But this one – full of diagrams like the 4004 block diagram at right – will likely never be out on eBook. So I broke down and bought a “real” book. It feels weird...
