    its most likly not a tablet pc, but just the monitor, the pc would be separate.

    essentially just a graphics tablet and monitor in one.

    dont know that particular one, but its similar to alot of the Wacom ones.

    i think just a standard graphics tablet might be best to start with, and alot cheaper

    It looks like a 20"+ touchscreen which is connected to a computer.
    It's hard to tell what design software they are using, it's not an Autodesk product, at a guess it's Adobe Illustrator.

    If you're interested in good screens for this kind of purpose, about 25 years ago I was selling Iiyama ones to architects & designers.

    That one is only about £500.

    You can get touchscreen overlays, but they will not be as accurate. I'm fairly certain that he has put a protective screen over the main screen, but there's not sign of it being connected up seperately.
    1. Have you tried to Google the answer?
    2. If you were in the other person's shoes, how would you react?
    3. Do you want a quick answer or better understanding?

    I already have most of the software From Major companies Such as Adobe to Video CAD packages so not a problem there Just loved the Simplicity the Tools he had AKA the screen and pen.

    500 Eh No problem Drop us a private inbox and see what you have to offer thanks again :)
