Doesn't fit with Jared Spool's research -- or with CNN's site <g> ... the
damn stuff has to be READABLE! Damn bill gates and the pervert who decided
to make 72 point type 96 pixels on a PC.

And double whammy to the geniuses who can't figure out how to just increase
the density of the type and keep the size correct, ie, 72 points = 1 Inch!
