What's the difference between a Macom Graphire 3 and 4 tablet?

Graphire 3: comes with Photoshop Elements 1.0, Painter Classic by Corel, and NIK penPallette software. The pen and mouse are cordless, while the tablet has the usual USB connection to provide power.\n\n\nGraphire4: Adobe Photoshop Elements 3, Corel Painter Essentials 2, nik Color Efex Pro 2 GE, Evernote Plus, and JustWrite Office 4 software.  pen and mouse are cordless (pen has an eraser).\n\n\nIt seems like most of the cost is in the software you get.

I always used a soft (4B) for text and a medium (2B) for most drawing.  A very hard (4H) is great for lines which are used for temporary use and will need to be erased later. \n\nsee the sites below:

Pentium D is a Pentium 4 with two processor cores (instead of one) in a single CPU (chip).  If you run applications that take advantage of multiple processors, like high-end photo editing, video editing, and 3D rendering applications (like Maya and 3D Studio, not games), then the Pentium D will outperform the P4 as these applications will take advantage of the extra processor.\n\nHowever, for basic home and office applications or games, the D doesn't buy you much.  The only exception is if you run multiple applications at once with each one running demanding active tasks (like running a huge spreadsheet calculation while searching a massive database and running a web spider to automatically hunt and categorize web pages).

Quite a bit of functional difference between G4 and G5. So G4 will be outdated faster than the older versions.

basicly, mx2004 is an updated version of mx, and 8 is an updated version of mx2004. they are all the basic same program, but each updated version has more capabillities and are usually easier 2 use.....but deinately get 8 it rox. u can do a lot mor.

Well, while the P4 is technically faster, the AMD has always been better at 3d graphics (for reasons unknown, or rather, for reasons too closely guarded by AMD to be known). So in games, the AMD would be slightly faster, in other applications, the P4 would be slightly faster. Unless of course, you got your hands on a 64 bit version of xp, or vista, when it comes out. The AMD cpu, being a 64 bit processor, would be able to take better advantage of it than the P4... and that's where it starts getting complicated... but let's forget that. If it's games you want, go with the AMD, the edge is slight, but it's there. Take good care of it, though, AMDs put out a lot of heat, and like to burn themselves out. Invest in a good heatsink.

What is the ultimate PDA device..the upcoming ultra portable device (aka Origami) which is predicted to fall flat on its face? Something retro like a Newton? A smart phone with a keypad? Smaller tablet PC. There can really be no ideal solution. You can't have portability and readability at the same time.  \nI personally would like something the size of a small DVD player, a 5 inch landscape oriented screen with a little bitty keyboard, but not too small, but that is the goal of this ultraportable device thing but it is still too large and heavy for its goals. Where do you draw the line between a microsize laptop or a big cell phone device?\nI have owned 2 ipaqs, the first being the very very first model that was available and have had a model 3950 for over 3 years. I like it and can get online with it but web surfing is a royal headache for sure. Email is OK. Mine isn't painfully slow. I have a GPS card for it which is fun.\nI am not getting a new one any time soon becaue in the past 3 years I have not seen any earth-shattering changes except for built in wifi (which I could get on a cf card if I wanted)...I guess I am waiting for something more amazing to come about.

Intel's Pentium M (m is for "mobile") and P4 are different style chips, so it is difficult to compare them on clock speed alone.  \n\nWhen I purchased my laptop (two years ago), I did some research on this topic.  The claim at that point was that the 1.6 MHz mobile was about the same as a 3.5 MHz P4.  This may have been in PC Magazine or something online.  (Can't find the source quickly.)\n\nThe main thing is that the M chips suck less energy, which is good in laptops, where battery life and heat are more important.

I assume you mean pentium 4 in a PC. Simple answer: NO An Apple OS will only work in a Mac. (Windoze, UNIX, etc. stuff will work in a Mac however!) If it is a Mac with a G-4 (rather than a Pentium 4) You will need more RAM. (at least 512 Meg and preferably 1 Gig or more) Tiger will work with 256 Meg, but that is marginal. If you want to get away from Windoze, you need to go with a Mac. G-4, G-5 or new Intel version will handle Tiger with no problems. G-3 will work, but will be awfully slow.

AHhh, ok!!!  Advantages are its like working with virtutal pen and paper... you are limited to your working area, because on the wacom, the whole pad is not a workeable area. Just whats inside that little black frame. Now, you can always up grade to a bigger pad. I do digital art, for web site degsine.  The drawbacks, are far and few but the one that really comes to mind is side and work area...

I will have to say its the FX 5200 as it has a hardware direct X version of 8.1 and the MX 4000 uses hardware DirectX 7.\nAnd Also that FX 5200 has a Cine FX Engine which is atleast a generation ahead of the MX level card which has a slightly upgraded Geforce 4 chipset.U may also notice that many games will run on FX 5200 but won't run on MX4000 due its lack of pixel and vertex pipelines, while the FX has one pixel pipeline that can emulate a vertex pipeline at software level.

buy it now if you need it now. (i'm an 12" iBook owner). its unrealistic to expect the new Intel based macs to be a lot cheaper, and essentially, all new apps written in new xCode can be run in both PowerPC based and Intel based macs.\n\nalso, Apple says it is going to support the PowerPC macs for a very long period of time and will release at least two of its future Mac OS X in PowerPC version.\n\nif you want to have the perfect computer, you really need to wait forever.

I prefer my Pentium 4. It has-\n\n3.00 GHz (Reports of up to 4.00 GHz succesful overclocking!)\n800 MHz FSB\n1 MB L2 Cache (I'd have prefered two, but whatever)\n478-Pin (I think...)\nHyper-Threading (Doesn't work well with windowed 3D stuff though)

many difference besides price difference, like shared memory for graphics in macbook ,,,screen size of 13" in macbook ,,15"/17" fr macbook pro,,,,backlit key board in pro,,,ram,,,actually too many difference ,,depends on ur use in short if u need just for mail and web and photos kinda of use buy macbook ,, but u need do video editing /graphics or even wanna play games that have too much graphics buy mac book pro,,,at13"macbook is cool in portability and good on pocket ,,in15"/17" macbook is good from inside but not that portable {but still better than most notebooks in marke anyways}\n\ntip: macbook1.86 is not so good 2.0 is ok for 1299 ,i recomend this ,,one,, ,,macbook pro is a bit overprice but if u can afford it its definately better

P4 is the standard chip\nCeleron is the cheap version of the chip\nXeon is the expensive version and is mainy used for network servers.\n\nGeneral use, the Celeron or P4 are just fine.  If price is of concern, go with the Celeron.  Performance is less than the P4 chip, but for everyday general use, it is not a significant difference.

I bought a wacom several years ago for 99 bucks and it was a complete waste of money.  I could do better with my mouse than that thing.
