Heh, I've moved boxes of books back and forth between Oregon and Connecticut a couple times. There's a reason I just pirate digitized books and read them on my Palm now...
I love books. Books are great. But my T|T3 weighs half as much as a paperback, is smaller, and with a 512mb SD card, can hold and give me access to the equivalent of hundreds of paperbacks. To the OP: I have a stack of paperbacks that's around 7 feet by four feet in my bedroom (with the covers out.) Try fitting that in your pocket!
Yes. I've moved several times with boxes an boxes of books. It's no big deal. Just put the bag of Cheetos down and step away from you marathon Warcraft session every now and then and grow some muscles.
that aside, my last roommate had enough books to fill up ten, floor to ceiling bookshelves about... i'd say four foot wide? our whole basement was a library. I put my stuff in storage at my parents and moved out west with 2 suitcases and my motorcycle.
so while your generic net of a taunt (good try though, if you keep using it you're bound to find someone it fits) is off the mark, moving a hard drive is still easier than moving a library... even for non cheeto eating non rpg'ers

Well Josef, if you plan to live in your hometown forever that certainly is viable.
Have you ever tried to move with box upon box of books?
I'd rather have a nice crisp e-ink book with the resolution of printed text to carry around hundreds of books at a time on.
Its like saying vinyl sounds better. Yeah but that doesn't mean it isn't nice to have an mp3 player. welcome to the future motherfucker.
