Re: Ever have a book run out of batteries?
Ever tried to carry 30,000 books? I've been reading an average of 2 books a day since the age of 10. At the age of 58 (and having kept most of them) the books are starting to pile up. The last move required a moving van and 52 apple bins on a flat bed truck. That was ten years ago. Recently, I've been scanning them in and downloading the older stuff that can be located through the http://www.books-on-line.com/ catalog. The current desktop computer with 80 GBytes of disk will hold them all when the scanning is done. Certainly the first 10,000 books isn't stressing things. Hopefully, a single laptop will handle it all within the next year or so at an inexpensive price. Having lots of books is wonderful and so is riding an elephant. Neither one fits in a bird cage. ---Jay
