Well, this is probably just horses for courses, but on my Dell i8200
laptop with 1600x1200 ultra-sharp display Luxi Mono and Andale Mone both
look *fanatstic* anti-aliased. I'm curious to see how the new Bitstream
Vera fonts that were released officially today (or was it yesterday?) look
with the new freetype and fontconfig which supposedly have improved
hinting that will make Vera look even better.
