I have a Wacom and it works fine. Is that a digitizing tablet?

Dabrowski.

I have a SummaSketch II tablet. I got it about 15 years ago to use with AutoCad.

So it will work in Windows Xp...now all I have to do is find the drivers for it. :(

Thanks for the reply!

Most of the new digitizer tablets can be used as mice. Not sure about your paticular one. 15 years is a long time ago lol. :p Is that tablet use the old ps/2 hookup?

I use a small Wacom 4x5 on my 'puter and let me tell ya....

Once you go Tablet....You never go back! :D

I rarely use a mouse anymore. The pen just feels more comfortable to me.
