Step 3: Calibrate the digitizer
With tablet PCs, you will frequently use a pen instead of a mouse and keyboard to interact
with the computer. Use the pen to move the pointer around the screen, and tap the screen
to click. Use Tablet PC Input Panel to enter text (page 24).
The digitizer detects the position of the pen on the screen. You should calibrate the digitizer
the first time you start the system, and again whenever the pointer does not align with the
pen tip.
