I switched from Garamond to Palatino Linotype, which I find is eminently 
readable.  
(And neat, as in +neat+). 

Windows XP has a version of Palatino Linotype from Microsoft.
See 
http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts/font.aspx?FID=253&FNAME=Palatino+Linotype
for a comprehensive run-down.

However, there are a range of free fonts which are worth exploring from time to 
time.

Have a look at:

as one digest and starting-point.
