I am happy with Auto Sketch 9. Is there any reason to replace it with Auto Sketch 10?

Not unless you want to upgrade your os to windows 8 or your 9 installation doesn't,t allow you to open an skf file by double clicking it. There is very little difference between the two versions otherwise.

Several actually (by bundle download/registration), might be a different bundle depending on the tablet you get, but mine: *Autodesk® SketchBook® Express*Nik® Software Color Effects Pro™ 4 Select Edition*Adobe® Photoshop® Elements 12*Corel® Painter™ X3 - 90 day trial*Anime Studio® Debut 9

The pen input is really nice for Adobe Creative suite. You'll have to download addition drivers from Wacom. So from that perspective it would be a great PS tool. But if I were to go that route I would rather spring for a core i5 surface pro 3. A traditional laptop should be more powerful dollar for dollar but you don't get the wacom digitizer.

Well that is a good question.... My previous version was a present but the person said they purchased it through Apple Store on line and bought this new version through Amazon as I wanted the new features that came out. It came with serial numbers so I had no problem installing it. I love this application... However I have read where some people couldn't upgrade their MAC store version as Autodesk licenses are different... Good luck!

I would recomend Paint.Net or Gimp. Paint.Net I believe supports tablets and is basically a cross between MS Paint and Photoshop tools, Gimp I've never used but I've heard good things about plus I believe both of them are free.

I like it, however i'm not an expert graphic artist. I use it occasionally with Corel Draw,Gimp and other graphic software with various results. From a novice point of view i think it's a great stepping stone to a more professional tablet that costs 100's more. It's been reliable for me and the battery stays charged a long time . The wireless part is great too because i can hold the tablet at various angles and positions without tangling wires. One thing i dislike is the auto battery save feature that makes me turn off tablet and back on to continue working, but only happens when it sits unused for a while. Hope this helps.

Old version of it. They won't be updating it. Nor will users be able to buy from adobe. Just rent the CC (Creative Cloud but I call it cash cow).

Yes, great program but quite old now. I am now using Serif products (PagePlus) which is similar but much more uptodate.

It has some issues. The touchpad stops working sometimes apparently without any reason. Also it gets very slow sometimes, hopefully that's because of windows so it could be fixed with an update. I'd say it's good for a student, my question would be, What kind of student? what software are you using? FYI, it can run autocad and solidworks well...

I was able to download the app for my iPad from the Apple Store. It's called DISTO sketch and it is a free download

I can't speak to AutoCAD, but Adobe Suite works...okay. To explain, the Adobe products do -not- scale well if you're running at the native (3200x1800px) resolution of the panel. The UI will be rather small. I still use it as such, just wanted to let you know as it could be off-putting (unless you run it at a lower resolution, though I don't know if I'd recommend that depending on the type of work you're doing). That being said, if you're doing granular pixel work, be aware that the sub-pixel arrangement of the panel that Samsung has used is not a standard RGB stripe. It's fine for normal work, but if you're getting in close to the panel some odd edges can be noticed. Performance-wise, I find the laptop to be okay. Remember, this is an ultrabook-class with an ULV processor, it's not going to perform like a desktop or hefty laptop. I find the performance acceptable for most things until I do something that's using the 'content-aware' and processor-heavy applications that take long times for all systems...the CPU turbo works great for short boosts of performance, but if it's something that takes long periods of time normally it might be noticeable that this is a low-voltage chip. Now, when you consider the fact that I've done content-aware fills AT ALL on this Ultrabook (and we're talking for things that are &gt; 10000x5000px)...it's pretty astonishing!

That's weird, it says XP and 7, but not Vista. http://images.autodesk.com/adsk/files/sketchbook_pro_6_system_requirements_final.pdf. However, Anthony62 does say he's done just that: http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/Installation-Licensing/Windows-8-and-Sketchbook-Pro-6/td-p/3678206 Autodesk is rather conservative in their leaps forward. Their releases will be compatable but they're careful about saying so. I've been around Autodesk products for almost 20 years--I'd make the jump. Later, you can upgrade to Win7 64bit and really cruise.

It is up to your computer. If it is newish and running one of the Lions you could do that upgrade. 9 has good guitar sounds and a flex feature. However, better yet IMO, if you can get the $200 Logic Pro 10. It has all the old sounds, some new, an interesting drummer feature, and flex pitch. Pretty much everything you might need.

IMO, the touch options are primarily a gimmick and actually impede workflow. I use the I4, medium and large at work and at home, respectively. They're great tablets and will last a long time, if not abused. I bought a Bamboo Pen and Touch, just to see if I would like touch options or incorporate them in into my workflow. I did not. My coworker has a PPT, medium. She keeps the touch features disabled. So, PPT and I4s are both great tablets, but the touch features don't really add any value, just keep that in mind while shopping for the right price.

Use it with Autocad and Sketchup daily. I like to switch hands once and a while to keep from wearing one out. Seems to help.

I do not know. In fact if have discarded the Acid Pro 7 as a waste of time and money. I just upgraded to Reason 8 on a Black Friday special from Propellerhead (the developer).
