Oh, wow, you've bought Cintiq! 8)
They're expensive like hell... worth a whole PC with a monitor.

so, does it give the edge over regular tablet? How close is it to real paper?

I'm still going through growing pains. Cost wise, if you are already comfortable with a wacom tablet it might not be worth the jump, especially if you are on an intuos 4 already. If you haven't trained yourself on a tablet using a cintiq is probably a life changing moment.
Definitely a good product. I'd also say that shelling out for a monitor arm is a good investment with a cintiq as well.

thanks for the info
unfortunately, I already stick with a regular tablet...

Also, why monitor arm? can't you just put it on the table or something?

Getting a good angle is tricky. For the programs I use I still rely heavily on the keyboard, so I can't go keyboardless. Also the cintiq is heavy. I'd like to rest it on my lap ideally, but its a monster.

Yeah, you've got to have a keyboard for ctrl+z

Thanks!

I hope to get a hang of the hardware. Right now it's a little bit of a battle.
