my mac has an old ArtZ Wacom tablet, and I wish like hell I could use it on the pc... it senses the pen angle and can variate thickness with pressure... which is what I really really want! :) but for now, the Aiptek is working pretty well, just the intuos is a lot LOT better, and I'll get one eventually (the Aiptek was a gift from someone, so I can't really complain about its price here lol). Finding a cheaper Wacom in Germany is not easy, though.
