So, I’m still hacking around in Safari. If you read earlier article, you might remember my complaint about the fonts being a bit blurry. Well, in my wandering around the Apple discussion boards, someone was nice enough to post an interesting article on the philosophical differences between Apple and Microsoft.

The article is well written and doesn’t try to take sides. I have to admit, after spending time using Safari, I have gotten used to the difference. The biggest difference is how much wider and darker they are. Maybe Apple designed the fonts less for art and more for us computer geeks with aging eyes.
