I have a huge number of books on my desktop. But for running games, I download the currently useful set onto a tablet. I have not even enabled e-mail on the tablet; I have it for watching streamed video, carrying books to games, video calls with C when I'm away from home, taking the odd photo, and a couple of other things, not as a substitute computer. (We originally got it largely as a portable note-taking device for C to use, but now she has a laptop.)
