Topic awaiting preservation: Whats inside YOUR Wacom ?

Here whats in mine, it looks relatively basic. A flat board with lines going down on one side , across on the other.

Uh, I'd assume the same thing is in mine, though I'm not about to tear it apart to find out...

Crazy Irish bastard...

Also, check out the tape, . . old school.

Oh and it still works by the way, was havin' trouble with it (different post). I was hoping I'd accidently fix it somehow It seems a little better now, buts its just mad how expensive they are, the white board under the green stuff is polystyrene then there's like a thin metal board which was all staticy. Oh I should mention if anyone else has the urge to split they're Wacom in two. You dont need a screw driver ! Clickidy tab things ! great.

Heh, Hugh you really made be grin there fella LOL I can just imagine how frustrated you must have been from reading the other thread, did you try the things I suggested btw?
I'm laughing so much because it's probably one of the things I would have resorted to too, working on the "accidently fix it" theory of computing
So is it totally up and working OK now? I'm looking forward to perhaps seeing some of the stuff you do once you have grown accustomed to it.

Well I know what a Wacom is now, at least...

Yay, thanks a lot Hugh for your insatiable curiosity; I often wondered how they worked
The number of chips on the back would go a long way towards explaining the expense.

This has given me an idea - we all have the curiosity and urge to 'take it apart and find out how it's made', but not the bank balance...
A website where people take stuff to bits upon request/submit this sorta thing? Like howstuffworks.com but more mental.

hmm...

If all existence is relative, there can be no such concept as being - discuss.
