[Web4lib] RE: library automation vendors

[Laura Blalock]

I had to jump in. I'm not interested in Harry Potter but I love reading 
books on my PDA. It's not only convenient, it saves on eye-strain trying 
to find decent lighting. I forget who, but someone once told me that pda 
screens were the same width as newspaper columns. And the column-width 
was devised to make reading easier.

And I am most definitely old enough for the margarita.
