False alarm: I'd forgotten that I never turned ClearType on after I formatted this laptop. FF and Webkit people, you're doing fine. ^_^ That's something I'm going to have to keep in mind when selecting body fonts, though... I suspect it's not a huge deal as Vista has it turned on by default, but there are still plenty of people running XP (like me) that it's something to think about for a while. ~TJ
