     @glynmoody If you want universally accessible reading material, the printed codex still reigns supreme after so many centuries.

     ah, i see. so someone (maybe kobo?) should aggressively market themselves to contend with amazon?

     @coyo the indie writers are an alternative, as always - the big & popular are there to screw you & the indies are the good guys

     @cyberkiller what indie games (that work over wine) are there that you'd recommend?

     @coyo you don't need wine, many indie games are native on GNU/Linux -check Desura; no specific titles cause I don't know your taste in games
