Cheree Heppe here: Just while I had nothing else to do, I decided to install the Kindle reader for PC on my NetBook. It's a trusty little computer, even though it is a Windows machine. Well, the NetBook does have my wishful thinking Apple sticker on the lid.
The download went without a hitch. The installer process barely got going when it offered several edit boxes, un-labeled, as one might expect from a partly, half-done, half-accessible, catch-up-if-you-can mainstream device like the Kindle. And when I tried to exit the installer, it sent me via Mozilla Firefox to Amazon's website. It wanted me to register my Kindle by in-putting the sixteen digit number on the first page of the Kindle reader app..... Sorry, no can detect said portion of set-up details, let alone said sixteen digit number. After I alt F4'ed out of there, I went into the Control Panel of my Windows NetBook and, with all deliberate haste, successfully uninstalled the Kindle app. Kindle's not there yet. Maybe it never will be, I don't know. Disappointing? Only a little. It just means that Apple has a stronger lead. I have the Apple IBooks reader which I have used pretty much right from the first on I-devices, without lengthy tech involvement, hair-tearing complications or aggravating issues. If somebody would have told me five years ago that I, a really non-techy person, would be this impressed with, and this facile with using Apple products as I am now, I would have said they were nuts. It's really amazing to be a part of such game changing, superbly done Apple-engendered technological competition, even if only as an end user. Keep up the good work, Apple! And we'll keep recommending Apple to everybody and throwing dollars Apple's way.
