Aiptek HyperPen 6000.

Very old, but was cheap at the time and it still works, even in Windows Vista.

Why not try what I'm doing?

Color!

And to get over my pencil slump, I broke out my lightbox and I'm going to copy, copy, copy, copy until I get SOMETHING going pencil wise.

A computer art table is... you have a tablet in front of you, like say, a clipboard. On it is a "screen," not a computer screen but a box. You use a pen, kind of like a pen or pencil except there's no ink. That pen controls the movement of the mouse cursor on your screen as you move it around the tablet, allowing you to use pen / pencil like motions to draw or color on the computer, or even sign documents and write.

No, I don't have one. I like complete control when I hand-draw, and I find mouse-drawing just looks too off. I like my pencils and real-life notepad, thanks.

Well Guen you might like some pads where they have the ability to have the tablet represent the entire screen as a whole, so if you put your free hand on it, and the pen on the other, you get exact control not "mouse" control.

That's what I like, and why I may have to buy a new tablet, my old one is so old the drivers don't do anything for Vista in that regard <_<;;
