at the office i have three monitors spanning so i use a 9x12 but at home where space is a luxury i use an old 4x6

i guess it's really a matter of size VS features VS price...

for me, the company paid for the 9x12 so i wasn't gonna turn it down, but at home i was perfectly happy with the pressure /sensitivity level in the 4x6 that the additional price for a 6x8 or 6x11 didn't warrent it.

I'm with Suzanne on this, short of getting "Consumer Report" to tell you which is the best buy, it STILL comes down to personal choices.
