The included pen is not as sensitive as the Bamboo pen they sell here, but it's decent. Using the Bamboo Microsoft Ink pen on this computer is not as sensitive or smooth as a wacom tablet but it's not bad. Neither the included pen nor the bamboo pen allow you to turn the pen over and use it as an eraser. The buttons can be programmed to be activators for erasers, but holding down the button while trying to erase with precision doesn't really work well at all. It's just too cumbersome. I found that the combination of touch screen had good and bad things about it. Zooming in and out was easy, but I found that I accidentally touched random stuff on occassion. The pen detects pressure level does not detect pressure ANGLE which will affect some of the brushes you may want to use. I am used to using wacom tablets and found that I missed the quick access buttons and sliders. The computer is also just slightly too heavy for drawing in some configurations (like reclining with your legs propped up and the tablet on an angle so the corner jabs into your belly.) If you use it with the keyboard open, you won't have a good drawing angle. If you use it folded over like a tablet, you will miss out on keyboard shortcuts. So it's not a perfect tool, but it's nice to be wire free, and the processing power is fine for photoshop.
