Sorry to say, but I am the exact opposite ;-))
I love the Dano font renderer (and MacOS X for that matter) because of
their high quality antialiased fonts - surfing the web from Windows
looks crappy to me, some pages even have special images so that the
font looks nicer in their menus - with Dano you can't see any
difference anymore - and I *so* like that.
But with Dano, you can also turn it off system-wide, and I guess we
will also do something like this.
Adios...
Axel.
