Hi,

I am a 3D artist using the m200.. Love the M200 but my Dell M90 is so much more powerful.. I was wondering if there is a way I could hijack the screen and tablet capabilities of my M200 screen for use with a more powerful computer.. Like a mini Cintiq or something.. Any ideas??

Thanks,

IC

you could use software like pcanywhere or VNC from the m200, but you would lose pressure sensitivity.

That is all I can think of.

PC anywhere sounds Slow.. I was kinda hoping that someone may have already tore in and ripped the screen off.. I would think that you would need to track and hijack wires that go to power, the Wacom hardware and display.. I wonder if it could be done.. This would be a potentially expensive adventure..

Whoa! I didn't realize you wanted to Frankenstein it!

Um........well...I am not sure where you would get drivers for the custom interface you would have to make.

That would be great!

It would make a great use of an old tablet pc!
