Scoble:
"Channel 9 just added Tablet PC support to its forums"
At first glance, this got a cynical "So what." reaction from me. But for some reason, I clicked through to C9 to see what was up first hand.
My cynicism quickly yielded to a big smile. Technology is becoming more
useful, rich and...human, every day. Very cool stuff. Now we just need
ink support on every PC and every web site to support ink!
Ink on everything.

Please tell me that 2 and a half years later (see my blog post) ink works outside of a Tablet PC on any version of Windows without some rediculous crap installed. I couldn't care to go research this myself so hoping someone will shed some light here.
I've had a perfectly good Graphire tablet for about 5 years that works only with apps that support it but by now this should just be built into any version of Windows. And of course this is just second nature to the MAC folks.
Umm...not really. Not only do you need ridiculous crap installed, its actually a whole new version of the OS. I've got a graphics tablet myself, and support for it within XPPro, even with RidiculousCrap 2.0 installed, the support is dismal.
You would think after more than 2 years (actually more like 5 plus when they likely started working on ink or Tablet PC) they would have figured it out by now. NOT
