can i just be a regular forum guy. I just wanna whine...(!)

i spent 4 HOURs today/tonight trying to get OT Wacom crap to work on my Mac so i could actually create and design this Eisley (Switchfoot) poster. I don't have, or use a mouse... which, as I've said before, is like drawing with a bar of soap with a bic pen stuck in the middle.

Broken pieces from the road, mismatched pens and tablets from every era. SCSI to USB issues...in the end... but after digging from my own closet of anchient MacCrap and failing,a design buddy of mine hooked me up with some sweet OT (old technology), we found converter/adapters, AC adapters, the right pen for the right ArtZII tablet, plugged it all together and... no OSX driver existed for the old rig. End of story.

so it only works in OS 9? how 'bout Classic?

i haven't had a need to use Classic/OS 9 so while installing Tiger, i didn't install Classic.
