5.0 out of 5 stars Artist's Deam-Machine!, April 30, 2011

This was a GREAT dream-machine for artists and designers, and it makes one wonder how was it even possible to work on Windows Millennium at only 1-GHz Pentium III, 256 MB RAM, and 60 GB hard drive? It had to be a miracle, huh? Interesting enough, most modern hi-tech computers can't do it properly on XP and Vista without freezing or lagging the cursor, which slows the artist's productivity. I surely would love to buy one, but... they'd vanished like a tall-tale saga from an alternate universe ;-)

PS If it weren't for Wacom Cintiq to give it a proper rebirth, we would have never learned how to draw directly on touchscreen monitors instead of getting cross-eyed by using standard graphic tablets!

The flat screen that folds down for drawing on is a great tool for computer artists. Drawing pads have been around for years, but adding it to the screen is more second nature to the artist's hand, which has been trained in tradional techniques using paper and pen.
