Introduction to pen computers
Last updated
Pen computers are essentially laptops with screens you can draw on. Unlike pen-enabled 2-in-1 laptops, pen computers are true drawing tablets. They do not need to be connected to a separate computer to work. Because pen computers have their own CPU, they run an operating system, and current pen computers use Microsoft Windows.
Some people love using pen computers, but I do not recommend them. More here: The case against pen computers. Instead, I recommend choosing a mobile device with pen support.
Wacom uses the term "pen computer," so I have adapted that terminology here.
