It's just "one of those things" (tm) I read about people who want their
Linux machine to render fonts just like windows! I sit back and wonder
why they like those jagged fonts! To me windows looks awful! When I
look at the fonts in FF3, it reminds me of OS/2 :)

I'm also trying to work out why it is when I click on 'reply' to some
posts it goes to the LUG and on others it goes to the OP! The same
thing happened to both my replies to Gen and Josh!
