I'm being offered either a laptop or a Kindle for Christmas. I'm not sure which one to get because I love reading, but my computer is a bit underpowered. Newgrounds, what do you recommend?

laptop. Why read a real book off a screen when you can just buy it?

Go with the laptop. You can get a kindle later down the road. However if you really like reading then get the kindle and keep posting on whatever computer you are using at the moment.

A laptop would be better. Just buy books in real life. Better than reading off a Kindle I think.

Wait, do you already have a laptop and are considering getting a better one?

I'm considering getting a better one, as the hinge is broken and it's rather worn down. Besides that, it works fine. I'm thinking of getting the Kindle as my laptop can hold out a bit longer.

Personally, I would get the laptop, but I don't like reading books on a screen, so I'm slightly biased.

I'm thinking in getting it to try it out. If I end up getting it, I'll make a post detailing my experience so you guys have an idea of what it is really like.

You're getting the Kindle? Nearly every post told you to get the laptop, yet you still chose the Kindle. Why even ask us?

May as well ask if you should go with a palm pilot. Christ. You can download e-books for the laptop and read off that while you do things other than just reading.

Lets see;

Something you will actually use and does quite a lot for what it is, OR some stupid screen used to read books, as if you couldn't just read a real book you tool.

Tough choice.
