Kip..
If you had the choice, for example of making a selection in Photoshop with a
"mouse" or now had thenew-found ability of making that same selection with a
"pen", (which you have almost innately used since you were about 2-3 years
old) which would you prefer??..I would DEFINITELY take the pen..IOW, it's
much more "intuitive" to use and thus faster and alot more accurate..all of
which makes it "easier" as well..
