To ClearType or not to ClearType, that's the question!

Any of you guys use ClearType? I'm using it on my laptop and I think it looks much better than before. I'm also using it on my 24" Dell TFT through the laptop.

If you don't know what it is, I recommend you give it a try:

Don't tell me you haven't known about ClearType until now?

I use it of course

To Cleartype. Even if you don't use an lcd monitor it looks so much better.

Anyone who has Windows XP and is not using Cleartype is foolish to say the least...

...but I suppose maybe some people like it without...

^ Agreed. I've been using it on CRTs for 3 years now

Hmmm... dunno 'bout that. I've used ClearType before and I have not used it. I don't really care if I use it or not, but currently I am not. Using a good 'ol CRT monitor, of course.

oh yeah, I've been using ClearType before DOS came out

I've found that it greatly enhances the quality of the fonts on TFT monitors, but on a humble CRT it looks too blurry for me.

For me: Not to cleartype.

I like it when the dot on my letter "i"'s take up exactly one pixel on my screen.
