I don't know much about ebooks and I don't have a mobile device. Does this include something like a PDF I can read on a computer?

They offer downloads in the major formats (open epub, Amazon's mobi, and regular pdf). Also, you can read and convert ebooks in pretty much any format using Calibre http://calibre-ebook.com/
