You know, I've always found those hard to read compared to the paper
version. Plus, they make me want to buy more stuff. Especially the
tools catalog...

I am 99.5% certain that that entire catalog interface is driven by a
Flex server.

Looking at the pen highlight, it's a cute trick but doesn't look too
complicated. The pen doesn't actually seem to draw much of anything. You
just click it and it seems to be drawing a movie clip that's sized to
the size of the item that was clicked on. So they probably just use a
custom made Flex component for that...

(You could do the same thing pretty easily in the regular Flash IDE.
Just make a movie clip that duplicates that animation, and when you get
the click use ActionScript to create a new instance of that clip at the
size of the clicked on item....)
