I wrote that because I don't know what technology is used for the touch screen. If it's magnet based like the Wacom tablets, then no, not at that price point. If the Acer is using the old school film technology where there is a thin plastic film suspended over the glass, then the screen will not be accurate enough to do artwork, unless you really zoom in and using a stylus will damage the film for sure.
