Stylus/Digitizer Thoughts

• Utilizes a plastic tip that is pressure sensitive
• Translates to lines, letters, numbers and even to
  some extent thicker lines with more pressure
• Stylus is to some extent machine specific
• Digitizer is linked to a given machine and stylus

More Stylus Thoughts

• Do NOT attempt the Zorro method of using the
  stylus
