I tried one off-brand (non-Design shop) digitizer and discovered that we talk in different terms. They talk mm and we talk points. Even though the two are related you still have to do a quick conversion in your head or look them up. There are other things too. Best to stay with a Design Shop digitizer with whom you can communicate easily and who is close to your time zone! Remember, China is 10 hours ahead of us. They are going home when you are just getting up.

There seemed to be people standing on every corner selling those small American flags that clip to your window and fly in the air as you drive around. I thought I might invest in one to demonstrate my patriotism, only to find a small sticker on the flag that said.... "Made in China". Can someone say "Irony"?
