Apparently "touch screen" laptops/tablets are not the same as he ones that you can use to create art.

Any help?

I use an hp envy with Corel programs. All told, it's under $1000 but I got both on sale. 

Microsoft surface is the standard, but, honestly, I'm super happy with my envy so far. It's integrating Corel a d adove programs, laying out a magazine and surfing football message boards
