Okay, here's a success story: my first computer was an Atari 800 with 32k memory. I then bought a 4"x4" Koala pad, which was like a Wacom tablet. With that and the software that came with it I could draw using 4 colors (on my TV screen, natch), which were then dithered to create 16 colors. I could save the files to 5.25" disks, and I could then print using a printer that I forget the name of - it used tape to transfer the colors - each page took about a half-hour. All of this was done on a starving artist/student budget. I used this as an art major at the University of Kentucky in the early 80s. Several of my pieces were accepted in juried shows, and one for a traveling art show (the naked upper torso of a woman!). I was the first UK art major to do computer graphics. Now I'm the Senior Computer Graphics Specialist with a company contracting with the US EPA, making good money. And with all that said, WHERE'S MY POSER 5?
