Yup, theres a cord that plugs into your USB port ^^

You can do more than just draw with it; anything you can do with a mouse, you can do with a tablet pen, it's just much much easier ^^ They come in different sizes, I believe the smallest Wacom you can get is a 5x7 one. The largest is 12x12, but it's well over $1000, lol. I have the 6x8 and it works great. Fits right in my lap so I can relax while drawing ^^

The hardest thing to get used to (for me) is that you have to learn to look at the computer moniter while you're drawing, not the tablet itself. Other than that, it's awesome.

EDIT; here's the sketch for "Reach Out Rescue." Not done yet, (obviously) but I'll hopefully get it finished soon ^^
