online retailers actively push ebooks, offering special sales to entice, so they do not have to muck around with shipping. also, I heard many ebook devices can be purchased pre-loaded with a default bundle of ebooks...whether the buyer really wants them all or not...and that bumps up the "ebooks sold" tally. ebooks are the future? man Hitler would have loved ebooks...Third Reich would have had it easy, Nazis would not have had to get off their butts to burn ebooks...an electro-magnetic pulse would have burned all ebooks, effortlessly. these days if there is ever an EMP, the masses will be left with hordes of religious books to flip through yay. all the good how-to stuff would be gone...better hope people actually know their skills enough to write all the knowledge down again...dunno if people in power would let knowledge trickle back down. ifya truly care about somethin, I say have a hardcopy. cheers!

hiya Armon,

yup rubbing alcohol works great, although usually vodka is more readily available :)

I wipe down workstations regularly...I hate it when keyboards build up oils from everyone's grubby paws!
