No. I started to download it a year or two ago when I saw the size of the download, I stopped it and forgot about Calibre. 355MB for an ebook reader? Give me a break! I don't do HULU (due to commercials) either. It converts from different e-book formats to other formats, not just a reader. |

I don't watch that show. There was something similar on the Drew Carey Show, years ago. His redneck neighbor 'Peaches' is fired from a custom tee shirt business for printing them with the arrow pointing up. Drew tells her, "It's supposed to point to the side." She replied, "That could be funny too." -- Anyone wanting to run for any political office in the US should have to have a DD214, and a honorable discharge. |

Doublechecking...yeah, 59.3MB. OK, giving it a whirl. I think it was Cnet who had the gigantic package, but I took one look and cancelled it. -- A mind, like a home, is furnished by its owner, so if one's life is cold and bare he can blame none but himself. -- Louis L'Amour |

Really? sigh Are you sure? I recently downloaded Calibre (for Linux) and downloading and installing took 3 minutes (233 kbs) and after reading your above I downloaded a version for windows - 62.2 MB (62214144 bytes). Caliber isn't touted as a simple e-book reader, it is primarily a library manager and a e-book converter from one format to another. -- Cheers, John B. |
