I dug out an old CD copy of Britannica (1999) the other day. Interesting that it installed on a win7 machine, it had previously barfed on XP.
Surprisingly refreshing and got to the essence of the information I was looking up without the incoherent blather.
If you actually have a professionally-written book or CD sitting on the shelf within arms reach, it's almost always faster and easier than dealing with Web 2.0.
It's sad for the kids who don't learn how to use both anymore.
