Wil, We've been using the Cintiq<http://wacom.com/en/Products/Cintiq.aspx> models with great success for the past several years, it really speeds up manually editing. Only Windows and OS X are 'officially' supported by Wacom, but there is a thriving community<http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/linuxwacom/index.php?title=Main_Page> that builds and continually develops drivers for these devices on various Linux platforms. We've been using ours on CentOS 4 and 5 builds without problems; it takes a little tinkering with the xorg.conf and other files, but you should be fine.

Could you provide a bit more details: Which models? Are you using tablets with Linux (RH or Ubuntu) and/or MAC OS?

To speed up the process I was wondering if a stylus input would help with the editing. Do the graphics tablets (stylus input) work with freesurfer editing? Do they end up being useful or is it not worth investing in? And if so, could someone recommend a brand (wacom?) that would work with Ubuntu 10.04 (or just linux in general).
