Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

I am finding that reading free texts on my monitor screen has its advantages. With a 17"+ screen and zoom control legibility is no problem.  I don't particularly have a problem with eye fatigue, and being able to hyper link to a footnote has its advantages.  I can keep the on-line texts I frequent most in a bookmark folder and easily insert excerpts into compositions, vs. having to type and proof read.  Many older texts are available free online.  I have yet to find an adequate substitute for my old habit of inserting bits of paper at the top of pages of interest, so going back in a long text is a pain, but I am much more favorable to text on video than I would have thought a few years ago.
