Reading comics on a mini iPad works for me.

I also have an old Kindle and love it.

I had a basic kindle which I liked more than I thought I would, but the e-ink went all ferwonk after of a day of being schlepped around in my bag. (Just after the warranty expired.) So now I read on the kindle app on my ipad. Which is fine, except my old iPad 1 is heavy.

Love my paper white. I like library reading on the overdrive app on the iPad, but kindle is smaller, easier on the eyes, and more focused (less likely to get a notification or whatnot and suddenly be online instead of reading). Don't love the organization on the kindle but still prefer to iPad in general.

I use my iPad Mini Retina.

I read on my phone, and watch videos on my kindle.

I love my paperwhite as well - both for my own ebooks and those I borrow via Overdrive. In particular, I love increasing the font and reading without my glasses when I'm in bed. I also love the battery life - at least a week given the way I read (generally a couple of hours a day).

I bought the kindle DX last time around because it was the only one that was still offering a keyboard. It took a bit to get used to the bigger size, but I like it now. I use an iPad for graphic novels and cookbooks.

I use Aldiko on my Samsung Galaxy tablet, I love Aldiko, I can set up tags and collections to sort everything by. There is a glare factor, though, and I wish I could bring myself to get a Paperwhite just for fic, but my tablet does everything.

My Mom's old computer has become intolerably slow. All she does is browsing, manager her banks account, email, and the very occasional speech for which she uses Open Office. She needs to be on a windows computer (unless there is an easy way to share printers between windows and linux - something that looks a bit tricky to me.) So what specs? I mean I see some really inexpensive windows 10 computers but I worry that slow processors, slow buses and slow hard drives will slow her down. OTOH, she does not need anything super. The hard drive needs to basically hold the OS, anti-malware, firefox, thunderbird and open office. Here "data" that is actual work will never come close to half a gig. So the low end sized disks (500 Gig) or whatever will work fine as long as they are not slow. Because of constant software updates, and constant anti-malware scans they do have to be reasonably fast. So that stuff that is supposed to go on in the background can go on into the backround and still leave her enough bandwidth to actually do things. So how do I distinguish a bargain from something that really won't support the basic functions she needs. I'd kind of like a little "cushion" so it will contiue to work once windows stops lowering footprint, and updates with a bunch of bloatware, as it probably will eventually.
