We all have our own preferences, but I like to leaf through my albums, none
of which are too heavy to handle, even at my advanced age. I do analog, my
son-in-law digital. I saw his on monitor the other day, one at a time, not
able to see a batch at a time as I can on an album page, or quickly move
back and forth as desired, more quickly then I can on the monitor. Finally,
although I tried to take the monitor into bed with me so that I could enjoy
a bed-time look see, it just wasn't as enjoyable as curling up in bed with
a good book or photo album ;->
