"What else is the Koala Pad good for?"  Well, I use mine with MicroIllustrator
(I bought it used, privately, and it came with MicroIll.)  The Koala Pad also
works with MicroPainter, I believe, and with Fun With Art and probably Atari
Artist (I think that last one came with the Atari Touch Tablet, which is what
I was trying to buy [new] but was no longer being manufactured - darn magazine
advertising scheduling!).  There are also some PD/etc. programs out there that
use it, e.g. Trails in ACTION! (ANALOG mag. - R.I.P.), something called Pixel
Artist Deluxe (which our club's copy of, won't save to disk unless it was just
a glitch in my friend's PD disk - but it acts like a bug in my humble eyes),
and even Diamond GOS (but a mouse/trakball is best for that).
