Why? Because a substantial fraction of the use of those systems was by real, honest-to-Ghod *artists*, who absolutely insisted on pens. I think they were right. I would put a mouse (or something similar) on a workstation I put together for myself, but I'm not an artist. -- Henry Spencer @ U of Toronto Zoology {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!henry
