Exactly. Computers as we know them today have their own physicality and neither that nor the sensations involved in reading books bear any direct relationship to the text. I just wonder if the current generation, who are growing up with computers, will feel the same way about them as Warner does about books. Probably not enough to get nostalgic/fogeyish about it until there's a threat of them being replaced by yet another technology.
