    They are changing paint? At a time when they are trying to push apps to the store?

    I do wonder about Microsofts marketing department at times.....

    To be fair I can see why they are doing this. Seeing as one of the main selling points of the surface range is the stylus having a 'good' drawing app to showcase it is probably a good thing.

    Would I use it seeing as I work in the design industry....nope.

    Cool, maybe it'll be able to handle transparency now and have a magic pen function like in paint.net.
