Books will never be completely replaced by computers. Computers can crash, and all information will be lost. If the power goes out in your house, you can't read on your computer, but you can pick up a book. What you read on a comp. is just light or something on a screen. A book is is a permentent physical printing. If computers replaced books, we'd all have serious eye problems. The joy of reading would be lost. I'd hate to have to depend on a machine for my relaxing reading time. Books are forever, computers are until it breaks down, and everything will be lost. Books can be taken care of, as can computers, but there are books that are a hundred years old, I haven't heard of anyone with the same computer for even 10 yrs. I guess comps are getting new and better, but books are still better to read. However, on the up side for comps, 1 comp, can store probebly over a hundred books, sort of like an i pod. But if the 1 comp breaks, that a hundred books too. Computers are good, and should store that kind of stuff, but I don't think it should completly replace the book. That would really suck.
You can't haul your computer everywhere you go, like the bus, waiting rooms, the lunchroom, bed, etc. Too large, awkward and unwieldy. Even laptops. You can't just throw a laptop in your purse. I take books with me everywhere I go so I have something to kill the time with when I'm waiting. I read everyday on my lunch hour. I read before I go to bed. Sitting in front of a coputer to read makes my eyes, butt and back hurt, because you have to sit up to do it and the computer screen is too bright. Plus, books don't need batteries.

I think it's okay for kids in school, and I'm sure that there are other instances, but I highly doubt that books will ever become obsolete.f a book - from reading an actual book instead of a screen.
. Finding good novels or non-fiction would be more difficult because of the volume of all kinds and qualities of same.
