Well, I have 2.1 and aa fonts but the problem is that adobe fonts are royally 
screwed in rendering.  Windows fonts, and any fonts except Adobe MM fonts are 
real nice.  The ONLY fixed font available/allowed is an adobe font which 
doesn't display well at all.  Like all adobe fonts under QT 2.3.0 aa, the 
fonts shift upwards, screwing up alignment in any browser window that 
includes any fixed fonts mixed with other fonts.  It also makes things like 
web searches a pain because the text entered in the query window, say in 
Google, is displaced upward and partially covered/hidden by the upper limit 
of the text entry box.

If 2.1.1 somehow fixes this problem then that alone would be enough to get me 
to upgrade.
