Article Abstract:

These products allow freehand sketching and personal handwriting flexiblity in various applications while still storing up to 20 megabytes. There are also other capabilities that increase their potential, each of which are described.

God is in the details

Article Abstract:

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has responded to critics by means of distinctive architecture and austere, yet clean, packaging. Characterized by tall spires and spectacular adornments, Mormon temples conjure images of Disney. Mormon aesthetics, on the other hand, are showcased in spare and environment-friendly packaging. Aiming for a classic appearance, Mormon graphics are a study in controlled elegance. The implied message is that the church is no cult.
