FYI– I did own a cintiq 12wx and hated it for myriad reasons, one of which was the lag between pen and screen when doing things like hatching, the small amount of offset between pen and graphic due to glass thickness, the dull colors on the cintiq vs screen and just the small screen size/resolution. Also it was a pain because I often switch between cad, photoshop, 3d program a number of times in the course of an hour and with the 12wx I had to keep changing screen resolutions, etc, etc…rel pain if you are not working in pshop for hours on end.
