@pgib Truthfully, when I'm on my MBP 15" high-res screen, 12pt is a little small. #WhereAreYouResolutionIndepedentFontSizes cc @bbedit

@bbedit Monaco 9. (Previously used ProFont 9, but too many weird OS X drawing problems.)

@danielpunkass I’m not. It looks terrible without anti-aliasing, and frustratingly blurry with it.

@siracusa From which path? The path of fonts too small to see without eye-strain?

@bbedit Monaco 9. It used to be a ResEdited version from 8.5 with single pixel punctuation, but since 10.6 I grudgingly use Apple's version.
