Bob, 

I think its more a matter of does anyone "not"?


1) A mouse can not allow you to sign your own name (example) let alone 

create or illustrate the images you see in your minds eye...


2) Without a tablet you are missing some of the features of your 

illustration programs. Pressure sensitivity has been around for a long 

time and makes up a standard feature set most of us expect when producing 

graphics.


I have one for each machine in my office as well as for my lap top. I use 

Wacom models and am considering one of the new "Intuous" (sp) models 

which has a 4D mouse accompaniment which will soon be used to rotate 3D 

models with one hand while you paint the object with your other (in real 

time). Only program I know that supports this function to date is Play's 

Animorphium but I am sure others will soon follow.
