  • Hm, I like paper books (and have far too many of them), but I wonder what I would have done while studying. I had folders and crates full of photocopied articles that didn't actually interest me a great deal and that I didn't want to keep. I might well have been tempted by one of these things, but one main reason why I don't enjoy having a huge amount of data in a computer is because I can't see how much it is. I find it a lot easier to get through stacks of stuff if I have it sitting right next to me in a physical manifestation. In data format it seems too remote and I don't enjoy that.
