Users expect links to be blue and underlined. When they aren't, usability suffers, because you've violated a standard practice they rely on. > > No, you should put sans-serif first, and leave out arial and helvetica > > and verdana.

Normal only as in common practice, not as in wise practice. When you have a need (normally uncommon) to use specific fonts on your page, then specify them.
