A year ago at this time, I was debating whether to go with one of the
specialized packages (Open Book/K1k) or a cost savings approach.
I ultimately opted for K1000 and haven't regretted it. I've come to
depend and value the program's many abilities, use it as my primary etext
book reader,
search and retrieve books and magazines with it, use its dictionary,
search encyclopedias, read .pdf files, et al.
I occasionally even use its money identifier.
Prior to buying the program, I wasn't aware of most of these capabilities;
and even if I had, I likely would have viewed them as superfluous.
But they are far from superfluous today and are a part of my regular pc
routine.
There is a reason K1000 costs what it does -- both for what it does and
what it is continually being evolved into by an active support team.
