this wonderful product. But you already know how wonderful the Touch Point

graphics tablet is. That's why you bought it. And we already know how wonderful

What you can o with Touch Point

re oved like you are w ith special co ands or long progra s. You just draw. And

see the result instantly on-screen. The way it should be. So you get instant feedback.

And instant pleasure.

More software than you can shake a finger at

Your Touch Point tablet co es co plete w ith our exciting new Finger Painter

software to give you all the tools you need to draw virtually any kind of graphics,

but there are any other graphics software packages available fro VID EO TECH

that allow you to use the Touch Point Tablet for specific graphics tasks such as

Engineering Drawings. . .Architectural applications and even on artistic Life Draw

ing course. Look for these VIDEO TECH software packages wherever fine electronic

gear is sold.

Use your fingers to raw

You don't have to rely on stiff light pens or styluses. Just draw with your finger.

What you draw appears instantly on-screen and can be corrected, enlarged, copied

or anipulated in dozens of ways.
