I absolutely despise drawing tablets. Great idea...but, I can barely draw a circle with the damn thing. My girlfriend is an artist and I had her try it out a few weeks ago and she couldn't draw a circle either. I know it takes a lot of practice but...if I'm going to practice something it's going to be actually drawing with pen and paper...blah.
On the same note as the drawing tablet...Bill Gates unveiled his PC Tablet. This is just building off of the Palm technology, but instead it's a really big palm running WinXP. Now, if I could draw directly onto a screen, well that would work for me. Also, another thing that I have been wanting to see for about fifteen years now came out this year...THE FLOATING MOUSE!!! I am so happy about this one, and they are only $100. One step closer to having our actual operating systems be 3D environments. I always wanted to make a operating system that ran on something like the quake engine....access your files by touching them, or maybe shooting them with your shotgun
.
Actually the reason for my question was to see how many people here feel more comfortable (with the quality) drawing on the computer than on paper. I find it very interesting that I draw better on the computer. I think it says something about my generation.
eh...
