Re: [Digital BW] Tablets was Burning Skies (feathering)

2002-09-10 by Martin Wesley

Thanks to Carolyn, Moreno, R, Tony, and James, for all the input on the
tablets. Seems to be a pretty good consensus that they are a wonderful tool
and that the Wacom Intuos 2 is the one to buy. The Cintiq looks very nice
but a tad out of my range at the moment. The 9x12 sounds large and the 4x5 a
little small so the 6x8 might be a good compromise for me. I gather a tablet
runs in parallel with a mouse allowing you to switch back and forth as
desired. Could I keep my faithful Logitech mouse or do you have to use the
mouse that comes with the tablet?

How is the learning curve in switching to a tablet?
