But, Mr. Woot....it's not red...

This, Mr Boone, is true, but ... it does come with a manual backup system should the DX fail in its duties

I find the key with the backlight screens is to change the reading colors and brightness. My tablet and phone are set to a black background with white text and when I'm reading on it I've got it set pretty dim. I've never gotten a headache from it. Then again I probably spend 75% of my life looking at a computer or tv screen so it'd never hurt my eyes anyways....

I do the same, usually when reading long documents for work. Turn downthe brightness and im good to go.

I get migraines and that black with white would kill me.

Isn't that funny? And to think, 20 years from now people will look at ads for a 1Tb drive for $100 and laugh in amazement that we paid so much for so little!

I'm still in amazement that a 1 Tb drive has hit the consumer market. I still fondly remember my Commodore 64 computer with came with a hard drive that used casette tapes!

I can remember my first spectrum zx80 with 4k for ram (expanded to 32k!) + cr b/w 10" tv (with spherical tube) and external tape connected to the earphones output... and a piece of tape on the volume so it was not moved around from the right position

Me, I'm a knuckle dragging caveman, never will go digital. They are soulless, I need the tactile feel of a real book and I am probably addicted to the ethereal fumes from the ink.(grunts and shambles back to cave)

Recently replaced my desktop and the new one came with a 2 TB drive.

I am learning to enjoy reading books on my phone. Of course I am soulless as well so that part is not a problem for me.

Yea I'm a bit of a souless computer nut myself. I think I've built 4 computers and rebuilt another one.

I used to build my desktops, the last have been off the shelf purchases since you can no longer get the parts for the price of a new desktop.
