From: "Antti Kurenniemi" 

I run 1600*1280 on my 15" laptop screen, large fonts but no clear type
(I have another system with XP in which I've played with ClearType - mine
is W2k) - doesn't really add anything but makes some stuff slower and some
fuzzier.

Surprisingly many apps still have trouble with large fonts, btw. Dumb.
