The 96 dpi is controlled by gnome. In X we're just taking the upstream
defaults for font sizing.
I tend to agree with the previous poster that reducing the font size might be
desirable for some, but will be seen as an undesirable regression by others.

You are young indeed. The Gnome simplicity and the default font and font
size of Ubuntu are the first 'wow' factor for many. It's clear, it is
readable and its appealing. You don't have to be close to the screen and
to focus (especially on

I like the current font size, It makes no sense to have smaller fonts on
current monitor sizes. On a 19" or 21" monitor there's plenty of room
for applications, no need to shrink the font size.

I always change the resolution from 96 to 80 dpi. The desktop looks so
much better and polished with smaller fonts.

Totally agree on this. 8 as a size is enough. I've been wondering for years why
my Ubuntu always looked such much less professional than Windows. Then I
figured out it was because the font size is so huge!
I changed the size to 8px and am using Droid Sans now and since then my desktop
looks a lo

Maybe changing the font to one with a better readability on small size
would allow developers to consider the change.
I would suggest Dorid Sans in 9px, 8 is too small and 10 is too wide.

Matt,
I think you'll find the screenshot of Firefox actually shows that the
window gets smaller with the same amount of content, when the font size
reduces.
Have a closer look at the window borders.

That screenshot does a very good job of making it look as if reducing
the font size gives Firefox no more room at all.

Here’s stock Firefox with with ascending font sizes. Notice how much
more room Firefox has with 8px – practical for netbook users, no?
