Tablets

Hi,
I've had a wacom for about 31/2 yrs. now, its great I've had no problem.
Setup was just a little tricky but the phone support was great and
the setup problem was resolved easily.
I strongly suggest that when U purchase a tablet U also get a "Y-mouse"
(@ lest that what the supplier for wacoms calls it).   What this does is
allow U to use the mouse and tablet on the same outlet (acts as a splitter
to a common connection) without have to physically continually changing
between the mouse and tablet.  Although U may have a USB support on your
system -- I'm not sure if either companies offer this yet but I would not be
surprised if they do.

I'm not sure about the Calcomp.
