    Stop Using Palatino

    Many of the letter shapes that make Palatino so distinctive and recognizable when used as a display face are ugly and distracting in text.

    Of course, this looks like it was set in LaTeX so it's probably using URW's Palladio knockoff anyway.

    YES!

    Seriously, though, I just spent 3 days in meetings listening to a .Net borg-monkey tell me how .Net solves all our development problems. It was all I could do to stop myself from jumping over the table and strangling him. The worst part is, his PHB believes every word he says. I am no advocate of Winblows, but if a game I like runs on it, then I will suffer the necessary evil.

    Anyway, I was just pushing the buttons of you purebreds. :-)
