  • Emate 300 User's Manual
    1 Writing and Drawing This chapter teaches you how best to write and draw on the eMate 300. There are several methods and tools you can use to enhance recognition, correct mistakes, and manipulate text and drawings. Go through the chapter to find the best tools for your needs. About recognition This section offers a general description of handwriting recognition used on your eMate and discusses some of the factors that may affect how well it recognizes your handwriting. When you write on your eMate, you write in normal printed or cursive characters, as well as numbers, punctuation, and gestures. Often you write English words, but not always. 1 The eMate tries to detect when you are writing English words, abbreviations, and common expressions. It uses a large dictionary to aid in recognizing these things quickly and accurately. When you write things that are neither simple numbers nor English words (such as initials, dates, telephone numbers, file names, or serial numbers) your eMate tries to match the characters you write to the common patterns of these entries. If no such pattern can be discerned, your eMate does its best to recognize the characters individually. Generally speaking, your eMate is somewhat better at recognizing poorly formed characters if they are part of English words (or other items that are in the eMate's dictionary). When you’re writing things such as license plate numbers, you’ll find that extra care in forming your characters neatly contributes to improved accuracy. Your eMate distinguishes characters and words in part by detecting pauses in your writing.

RISC processors streamline the internal workings of computers. Whereas traditional (complex instruction-set computing, or CISC) processors contain a wide variety of instructions to handle many different tasks, RISC processors contain only those instructions that are used most often. When a complex instruction is needed, a RISC processor builds it from a combination of basic instructions. RISC processors are designed to execute these basic instructions extremely quickly. The performance gains achieved by speeding up the most-used instructions more than compensate for the time spent creating less-used instructions. Basics Power Macintosh System Overview - 2 Previously, RISC technology had been used only in high-end workstations and commercial database servers. With the introduction of Macintosh PowerPC computers, Apple succeeded in bringing RISC technology to personal computing. Key Points Three key points to remember about a PowerPC processor- based Macintosh system: It's a Macintosh; it's compatible; it offers tremendous performance. Apple's PowerPC computers feature the same user interface as their 680x0-based predecessors. Users can mix RISC- based and 680x0-based Macintosh systems on the same net- work and exchange files and disks between them. In addition, users can run both 680x0 and native PowerPC applications on the same Power Macintosh system simultaneously.
