Hi,
I'd like to find out more about the pros and cons of different teardrop 
(tapered trace) shapes - long taper vs short taper, straight edge vs curved 
edge. Why was the curved edge introduced, and under what circumstances is it 
advantageous?  Are there any good books or websites on the subject?
Thanks,
