Yep, there's a couple of sylususususes (stylii?) with it :-)  There's a
cassette in the packaging - no manual or disk software, but then there
are quite a few carrier bags full of documentation and disk software
that I haven't even got to yet, so I expect they're both in there (I'm
assuming the thing should come with a disk, rather than just tape
software)

Unfortunately I think it's one of those things that'd be too prone to
damage in a hands-on exhibit (I forsee kids stabbing at the pad with all
sorts of things and any stylus rapidly going walkabout!)

Bet they must have been *hugely* expensive when new!

cheers,

Jules
