Still running well…
But I lost the pen for my Graphire 4 and can’t find it. Looked everywhere, debating just chewing the $30 and buying a Bamboo Fun pen off of Wacom’s eStore if their tech support replies that it’ll work – their site seems to indicate so, but there’s a few sites on Google saying otherwise. Figure they’re the best to ask since it’s their bloody product 
Other than that, my 320gb hdd is finally starting to fail after having given me 17,590+ hours of wonderful performance, so I’m looking at a 1tb replacement.
Course, now that this pen went AWOL, if I can’t swing the $29.95 I’ll end up docking my 1tb to something like a 640 (has to be at least 440gb so I can replace both my 320 and 120′s, the 120′s starting to have a predicted-fail in January). I’ll keep you posted I guess.
Been debating re-starting the old craptastic comic Offworld, although if I do I want to get away from sprites and do at least SOME of it by hand (hence the pen). Might get some use out of the multitude of drawing books I’ve used coupons on over the years; probably will still have -something- with sprites, but the major hassle with them is they don’t scale up well without looking like ass, and it’s hard to do detail when the thing has to get scaled up to 4x to be visible, which results in jagged edges.
More details later this week; for now I did find the mouse for the tablet so I might see what I can do with that, although honestly I’ll probably just use my Logitech mouse if it comes down to drawing with a mouse. At least the Logitech feels nice; the Wacom Graphire 4′s mouse feels like a slab of brick in my hand.
