Xandros Desktop OS 3 Deluxe Edition Reviewed

  1. Re:Desktop is not usable until fonts are sharp by DrJimbo · · Score: 5, Informative
    I run Linux on a laptop with a 1600x1200 15" LCD screen and a 1600x1200 21" external LCD monitor. I use the Bitstream Vera Fonts for almost everything. They are available here. They are as sharp as sharp can be. I've been using them for over a year and I am still thrilled by how crisp they make everything look. I do have anti-aliasing turned on to remove the jaggies but there is not even a hint of bluring.

    Next problem?
