I never turn off my machine, because every reboot forces an update and my peripherals are ancient.

    Isn’t a drawing tablet just a fancy touchpad that works with a pen? What excuse do they have not to work with tablets past a certain age when they all use the same USB signalling standard mice and laptop touchpads have used since USB came out? (We all know the real reason, but I’m curious about what they pretend is the reason?)

      Apple don’t feel the need to give excuses in situations like this. They know you’re an edge case and your complaints will be so much piss in the ocean. Meanwhile else gets to talk about how great the new unreadable ui is. That skeleton at the bottom of the swimming pool meme could work here.

      Basically yeah. It’s a bit more complicated because of touch sensitivity, but I think I’ll need to learn driver programming soon, because I can’t afford a new model (e: and there’s nothing wrong with this one). Then I’ll be able to say for sure.

      e: Intuos 4. And to be fair, it would have died under windows like 10 years ago, apparently.
