Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Cheap and streamlined for my use. Perfect (specially when paired with a pen/tablet).

About 6 months ago I piled a buncha crap on my desk and haven't used my tablet since. I should do something about that this weekend.

I almost bought a used Cintiq a couple of months ago. Had I done that I'm sure desk would've been cleared

The problem with Adobe is not how fast their software runs. It's how they could give a crap about their customers.

I'll take your word for it - I've never had a problem that I've needed to contact them about.

Seems like you're always getting one or finding one, just wondering. I thought for awhile there you sold them used or something.

Get them off of your tablet...?

Even at used pricing, a Cintiq would be a pure luxury purchase for me - it would offer improved functionality but not enough for me to justify it with any rationale beyond "because it's cool."

I've been known to flip a bike from time to time. Too busy lately to do much of that. Since my Pinarello got stolen I have a huge hole in my fleet. My road bike should not be my 4th lightest bike!!! (hint: bikes are ordered from light to heavy in sig)

Yeah, WhyFi, I'd love a Cintiq but definitely didn't feel flush enough to splurge on that one.

Highly unlikely. I'm a metal bike lovin' curmudgeon. I only came around to Aluminum about 4 years ago. And only kinda came around to aluminum.
