I'll read through that link you sent on ClearType.  Just to make sure 
I'm understanding you though, if I have a glyph which results in a 
9-pixel wide bitmap, turning LCD mode on results in a 9x3=27 pixel wide 
bitmap.

You're saying that this is really a 3-channel bitmap and that through 
color filtering you should still end up rendering (when its all said and 
done) a 9-pixel wide glyph right?
