There are some improvements in Vista UI-wise (within the suffocating confines of WIMPshit). But unfortunately it has also falling victim to the industry-wide trend of anti-aliasing fascism. XP was the last OS with good-looking fonts: in Vista you can't disable them completely (at least not easily), fontconfit/Xft are well-known to be AA/XML-fascist, it being practically impossible to configure to get decent fonts, especially if you don't have root access. OS X also AFAIK needs special hacky extensions to disable blurring and still afaik doesn't support hinting, so the fonts rasterise poorly. > There's a reason why I recommend Macs to new customers :). Macs are too much like Gnome. Between Mac/Gnome and Windows/KDE, I'll take the latter. -- Tuomo _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
