The notion that books will completely disappear is completely ridiculous! They've been around for how long exactly? They are not going to be done away with, especially this quickly. Electronics lose their shine and novelty quickly. Computers and electronic media are great, but it's not going to stop people from buying books and using technology that is as old as writing itself. I agree that it is true that dictionaries are easier to use when you don't have to search through two thousand pages of words you don't want, but there's a sort of satisfaction that goes with looking through a real dictionary and finding the word you want. I, at least, look forward to owning every single volume of the Oxford English Dictionary some day.
