Been awhile since I posted anything. About two weeks ago my intous4 started malfunctioning. It started to get hot in the bottom left corner (I’m right handed so you know which corner that is if you have one)and then, the lights went out, then hotkeys/tabs stopped working. About a week after that, with no response from wacom’s support, the tablet stopped recognizing the pen.

During all of this I was able to keep working on my surface pro, but working on that for long hours is hard on my eyes because of how small the screen is. So in the end I bought the newer model intous, the large intous pro. I’ve gotten pretty good with the touch controls on my surface and found myself missing them on my old intous4 so I was happy that the new one had touch controls as an option. The only problem is that MS5 doesn’t really recognize a lot of them, like rotate. >.> I have to do some customizing in order get things going more smoothly. I’ll be back up and running at full speed again.

So yeah, now I’m broke and a little behind on things. D:

I'm surprised you don't have a Cintiq. A kickstarter campaign could get you one if you don't have one yet. 

Unless you don't like surface-to-screen drawing.



If you don't mind me asking, how long have you had it? A friend of mine just got his Intuos 4, eager to get into the Wacom world, but he likes his Ipad too much.
