Hello Mallory. For this Cintiq you defintely need a computer connected to it for it to function properly. Its not like a Cintiq Hybrid or anything like that where its mobile. Think of it like a second monitor. You can connect it to a laptop as well which is what I do. I connect mine to my Macbook Pro.

The Cintique is like having a 2nd monitor and a tablet connected to your computer. So, there is no reason to need another computer. Your graphics card does need to support two monitors, but almost all do now.

yes, this is a MONITOR that allows you to draw on the screen. you still need a tower. If you are looking for the newer, all inclusive cintiq that does not need a tower, it is called the "Cintiq Companion"

You don't need any computer at all. Just need a TV or computer monitor with a VGA connection and a separate (non provided) VGA cable.Also, if you have any device with internet access, download the SDS-P3040 user manual for operation info.

Nope. I sync'd it to my IPad before my laptop and I don't have it connected to a PC tower at all

I believe that you can. That is what some people have used this tablet for because it is compatible. It used Windows 7 if that helps.

My daughter set mine up. It came with instructions on the computer. My wife lost it for a bit and I replaced it andit worked fine, so I would say no.

A tower will work fine. Having some extra room on the desk would actually be better than how it's set up in the pic

You will need to know this is NOT a computer, it is a server. So you will need to know how to set up a server and then buy yourself an actual desktop,laptop, tablet etc to access the server.

A tablet? Does your tablet have slots in it like a mini-tower PC? My guess is no, but call star tech support they are always there and will help you for free!

No, it is like a wireless mouse and keyboard. You still need the computer to work along with it.

There was an app that you have to use. Should have came pre-installed. Sorry I can't help more. I returned this tablet back to the store.

I'm so "dumb" about computer stuff....but I would like to know what do I need to have internet when I am visiting,etc. Is there a portable device that would allow me to have access,regardless where I was???

There isn't a tower. The computer is encased in the monitor. It does come with a keyboard and a monitor. I bought this for my wife a few months back and we love it!

You have to have a disk drive. Do tablets have disk drives? You might contact the vendor, however, you need to be on the internet to do that.

Not necessary, just plug in the tablet. But doesn´t work for External Hard Drive, just flash drive.

Yes you can add apps and the tablet is wireless. But the computer is so slow you can't enjoy either of these features. Don't buy this junk.
