I would have killed for an ebook option for my textbooks. I was really sick the last year I attended college. I used a cane, and could barely carry my backpack. A Kindle, or the like, with all my textbooks loaded on it would have made my life easier. Even now that I am healthy, I would rather have them all loaded on a ereader of some sort, than hauling the books to class.

I just don't like carrying books around, though.

I am a 34 year old returning student. I am already a nurse, but thought a four year degree might be nice. I love computers, video games, and all things electronic. I have recently switched to an Apple Powerbook, and doubt I will go back to a PC, unless it Linux. I do my gaming on the PS2 and Gamecube so the Mac gaming issue doesn't affect me much. If I could only get a mac version of Insaniquarium, then my mac switch would be complete. I am married to a nice man, that is getting his CPA, and have a cat, some rats, and several large fishtanks.
