Many apologies to all our Mac friends.

which speaks multiple operating systems. Armed with the RIGHT version of the Kindle book-reader, not only can you start reading the book you want in minutes rather than days (or weeks), but in addition, you can carry your library with you on your laptop instead of in crates, regardless of which operating system you use.
Hi, thanks for the tip! But what about the third way of OS, Linux? Surely it works as well, although there is no app, you can use the Kindle Cloud Reader in your browser.
Dan, appreciate you bringing up Linux. The “third way” — love it. We’ll mention this to the larger group.
