If you need to use the slate for drawing, then you just need to tap a button. You just need to sketch on the slate and can see the creations on the display. To be better, Lenovo includes a magnetic pad of paper that attaches to the slate and you can use the slate just like a real note book. The stylus comes with ink cartridges that are easy to find at any office supply store, and you can use any paper you like. If you attach the paper pad to the slate, you’ll have both a digital and an analog copy of your notes.
