I think neither would be appropriate because in the artistic task of creating the font each pixel was put there by purpose. A chess board is not aliased either just because it has a grid. I agree that anti-aliased stuff at 100dpi isn't sharp enough, I'm mostly using the olde hinted Microsoft fonts.
