Eeehh gads, Silverblade!  I'd be scared to death of one of them animals....  Seriously, though, I've always thought the Wacoms are for the real artists - and one of them I am not.  But I still don't think they are for me.  I'd have to lean forward rather than keeping my neck up against a pillow, and I don't think it'd work for me.  But thank you so much for trying to help.  I really appreciate your input.
