I have a mouse and tablet connected in parallel to my mac. I rarely use
the tablet as a substitute for the mouse. The tablet is excellent for what
it was intended - it double clicks, is pressure sensitive.. all sorts of
good stuff. The advantage of the mouse is that it stays where you leave
it.

Having used the GIMP for about 5 days I must say that I am truly impressed
with it.
I spent a bit of time altering some existing pictures, and read the tool
tips.
The GUI is not really a problem, however I have had lots of experience with
CAD packages for Printed Circuit Board design, so I didn't
That doesnt mean that the Gimp interface is bad or anything.
A common question with Photoshop users is how to draw a circle, this
isn't
a vector based drawing program, no "circle" tools here. Someone who does

Alot of 'doze graphics editors decided that they should consume your

makes it a hackers interface. Personally, I find the GIMP intuitive and
fast, it probably could be better but what couldn't? I use Photoshop a
lot on our DTP machine (has a scanner - my laptop doesnt) and I feel
like I have a hand
