looking for pen/tablet for win 3.1

I'm writing some games for Win 3.1 but doing the gfx by mouse is killing my wrist and I can't get the level of detail I want. I don't own a scanner (so no drawing then loaing.) Are there pen/tablets I can find for Win31 that will work on the desktop.

I'm looking for something similar to this: My sis has kiddy software that comes with a pen, tablet, and the software. The pen/tablet hooks up to her computer and she can do her drawings on it. That's what I want!

yes, but i dont see any that are not usb, you need ps/2 to work w/ win 3.11, or you can possibly install it on a newer machine and transfer graphics over...

They use to make graphics tablets with serial port input and before that game port input (Koala Pad). Might be hard to find since most are USB now. Try using your sister's software and tablet. If it stores in a compatible format it should transfer over. Other methods: digital camera to your sister's computer, fax image. A tablet may cost as much as a scanner.

Alright this is basic, and supports W95, an easy upgrade from W3.1, if use W95A can even keep W3.x desktop.
