From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I searching for a tablet for drawing and discovered this one. Anyone tried drawing on it? I wondering if the experience is good.

On the page they doesn't mention if the screen supports drawing pens, but it's possible to order an MPP pen with it, so I assume that it works with Wacom or Surface pens?

I was kind of turned off by the keeb* being sold separately, also wasnt the aspect ratio meh.

Rule of thumb larger screen or surface means more fluid strokes, thus smaller screen means more fine motor skills and more tension in the hand and less* fluidity in the work.

I was incorrect about the aspect ratio it's 3:2 not 16:9 and I think 3:2 is fine especially at 2160x1440p.

Still with the dialogs on the left and right anything except minimal would make the drawing area small taking the left and right.

I did notice it on sale, maybe if you have humble expectations it would be okay for sketching, but if you are used to better quality things or larger draw surfaces you might not be easily impressed.
