Samsung Ativ 500t review for the digital artist

While I've long lusted after one of those amazing Wacom Cintiq tablets, the new breed of Windows Pro tablets provide a lot of the same functionality for less money.

I purchased a refurbished Samsung Ativ 500t Windows 8 tablet about a month ago.  It's been a love-hate relationship since I'm trying to unlearn things that I can do on an iPad as well as get used to the dual Windows 8 interface.  The app side works much like an iPad but the Desktop side works just like a regular PC.  Therein lies the problem since many Windows programs aren't designed to work with a touch screen.
