I would imagine that if the Intuous drivers work, the grapphire drivers should work too? Me, I love my Grapphire tablet, and I can honestly say i don't think I'd benefit from something higher than it, like the Intuous. but, I wouldn't want to do without it, and I would avoid XP if it meant I needed to ditch the Grapphire. The Grapphire's only about $100 US, by the way.
