+#X text 10 36 "HID" stands for "Human Interface Device". A HID is any
+device that is meant to allow humans to interact with a computer. Usually
+\, HIDs are mice \, keyboards \, joysticks \, tablets \, gamepads \,
+etc. There a number of unusual HIDs \, like the Griffin PowerMate on
+the low end \, or the SensAble PHANTOM 6DOF on the high end.;
+#X text 11 124 When talking about HIDs \, "DOF" is often mentioned.
+"DOF" stands for "degrees of freedom". A degree of freedom is one dimension
+in which that HID can give information. A mouse generally had 2DOFs:
+X-axis and Y-axis \, though a wheel could be considered another DOF.
+The PHANTOM 6DOF has six degrees of freedom: X \, Y \, Z movement \;
+X \, Y \, Z rotation.;
