In KDE you mould menu-> personal settings -> Appearance and themes -> Fonts Then set style, color (sic) to your preferences. Undoubtably gnome offers the same features. This will set your desktop preferences. All fonts and sizes are modded. For a LCD monitor set the resolution to the native (pixel) resolution. Everything else is compromised. For a phosphor monitor, don't bother, just set monitor size to your most prefered desktop size, THEN play with themes. In general the advertized specs of a phosphor monitor are the fasted-that-works-ok. Going slower, bigger gives you better quality results.
