Hi maxi - Moi does not require a tablet in order to run - MoI's tablet features are just that it's overall UI is much more friendly to tablet use than other CAD programs.

You can still operate MoI at full functionality with just a mouse - it's not that it requires a tablet, just that it also works smoothly with a pen tablet as well as a mouse. Frequently the UI of other CAD programs tends to be quite awkward to try and run on a tablet because of things like requiring lots of modifier keys and things like that.

So you can get a Windows 7 tablet for running MoI if you want, but you can also just run it on any regular Windows machine as well like just a regular laptop or desktop computer or whatever.

MoI has minimal overall hardware requirements, it will run on pretty much any off the shelf Windows machine that you would get, the only general guideline is that it can be good to get a machine that has a dedicated graphics card instead of integrated chipset graphics but MoI can even run on those too they just have less overall horsepower for doing more complex models than a dedicated graphic card has.

One thing to watch out for though is that some kinds of cheap tablet machines may be running something like the Android operating system which is a totally different operating system than Windows and MoI won't work there, or on the iPad.

But you can actually also run MoI on a full Mac (not iPad) machine, there is a Mac beta version of MoI available from the download page on the main http://moi3d.com web site.

Hi maxi, also re:

> Is the moi license tied to the hard wareor the user
> or simultaneous executions?

The MoI license is not tied to only one specific machine, you can install it on multiple machines that you own just as long as it is only being actively launched on one place at a time.

So if you want to put it on both a laptop and a desktop machine and you're only going to be using it on one of those at a time you can use just one single purchased license for that and install that same license on both the laptop and the desktop.

If you want to install it on 2 machines and want to have 2 different people operating both of those machines at the same time then you need 2 licenses for that kind of thing.

Thank you. The os stuff is understood. The mouse stuff is understood. One of target rest users has high end ink skills, no known Fcomputer skills, and might be using this five miles from a road. Also a target is kids and there are not suppoerable public ktd desktops in town.
