Another cintiq drooler, frothing at the idea of a sim-tiq now..

[Yakumo]

Hello

I'm flat broke but I already have an old A4 regular intuos 1 (same as the US model called the 12x12 right?) I bought for work in 1999 kicking around in storage (if I can just find the pen, :-/ seem to have lost it in a move), been wondering what to do with it for a very long time after leaving serial ports behind, and borrowing a small intuos 2.

I'm amazed at what you've done, I've been drooling over cintiqs since not long after I got the intuos!

want to read up as much as I can on all your experiences and see if I can scrape together some cash for a good screen, and risk having a go myself

oops , answered my own question with a quick google search, a4 will be a 9x12.

a 9x12 sounds just right.

My advice... get a cheap LCD (within the parameters suggested on this forum), because that's the easiest part of this scheme to mess up.  If you ruin a cheap LCD, you wont' cry too much.
