Not really that much in the article except for some OK advice on sizes and superscripts.
Overall I was left with an impression of how American it looked. It was like a plastic woodgrain dashboard. I guess that shows how much design aesthetics come into it - but that's OK if you know you want to look American.

Interesting! I don't immediately perceive anything distinctly American about it, but I'm definitely biased. Could you provide any examples of what you'd consider non-american data design, if only for my personal design curiosity. :)
