Dreamy

I got a new Toshiba Tecra Tablet PC and this is my first attempt at using the tablet.

If I were doing it over I'd give her a little more room for brains. Posted by Picasa

Looks like fun.

Brilliant at your first attempt. Is that your first attempt using any tablet? I like it even though she is short on brains!

Thanks, Kate, for your kind comment. Yes, that was my very first attempt at using ANY tablet ever. I've since done a few others (been busy unpacking). Once thing you will notice is that her face is long and narrow. The aspect ratio on the tablet is wrong--what you see is NOT what you get. I have to figure out how to fix that0--I hope I can. I haven't read all the instructions yet, I was too eager to try it. I've been unpacking and doing laundry from my trip--I'm not even caught up with that yet.

The tablet just works like a mouse, only with more accuracy. You can also handwrite stuff, though I type faster than I can write.

It's much easier for people who are a little short on brains.

The handwriting would be nice for a special occasion personal touch!

Thanks for you comments, hpy and moo!

In some ways that is true, but in other ways not, hpy! It's sort of funny as a joke, but sort of not when you know someone with that predicament who has problems as a result. (And as I am aging, I worry about my brains shrinking! They do that! I want to stay smart and remember stuff).

Kate--signatures, too! And you can write into a pad that pops up instead of typing while working on the tablet! This is actually eaier than typing because you don't have to switch gears--if you are saving, for example--it reads handwriting VERY WELL!
