Given that computers can't read (as such), I think you're reading too 
much into "read your email".  Certainly without the google computer 
cluster, you wouldn't be using gmail to read your email. That the email 
text actually has to be delivered to your screen is kind of irrelevant, 
IMO. :-)

I agree. A shame it didn't keep up with the times.
