There are some people who do insanely exceptional work with a mouse. I had a frand (who I lost complete contact with and it infuriates me) who was crazy good with a mouse because he had no other choice. But if you're looking for a nice tablet I can link you some for under 100 USD. Even as cheap as 50 USD. (When I get home) [spoiler]Do you mind if I save your piece?[/spoiler]
