Man, I love having a real book around.
pdf files are great for quick lookups when you don't have a book  
around, but for me, the book is a wonderful format that is easy to  
search, and easier on the eyes. Also doesn't take up screen real estate.
I just wish they still published stuff in those binders like back in  
the 80's and sent periodic updates to insert. Those were great!
Sometimes analog is good.
