# 'tis only Tuesday
I cunting hate Tuesday.
The only good bit is between the hours of 20:00 and 04:00, for then it is Tuenesday, the best non-day ever.

Even if I'm not in the office dying of sleep, I still hate Tuesday. Nothing good ever happens to me on Tuesdays, but as long as I keep posting I won't start snoring in the office again.

# hmmm... well I was gonna get a new wacom tablet
as soon as both my car tax and MOT are out the way next month, might have to think about looking for a Cintiq if I can get it at that price...

JJ- is it really as good as it looks (ie no lag or anything)?

# Takes a bit of getting used to.
It's not like drawing on paper OR using a traditional Wacom tablet.

Also: it's technically a dual screen set-up, which takes a little while to get to grips with
(but even longer to set up properly!)
(I helped save b3ta! JollyJack - a stench from the past, Tue 20 May 2008, 14:00, archived)
# I'm on a dual screen setup too. At the moment I'm only using the top half of my tablet so it's still absolute positioning with the extra wide monitor set up.
Which unfortunately renders half my tablet useless :(

# They are excellent.
but one pain in the arse is that you will have to get used to setting up your workspace in an unfamiliar way because if you are right handed then your arm covers a lot of your palettes and there is only so much important stuff you can program on the tablet keys and stroke pads.

# damn. My previous reply
has gone. I was saying that you can find them on average for £7-800 ( I've been looking for a while ) but you can get one from the US for just under £500 and if you have a friend who can 'sell' it you through ebay you can avoid shipping and taxes.
The one I want is £2936.33
