My answer was simple,
WINDOWS is for mugglestake a look here
LINUX is for wizards
and,MAC is for artists
The argument was not over , the discussion continued with , the new safari browser for windows.
we are so excited with this move of getting the world's most loved browser on to the world's most used platform[windows]. every one are talking about this.
Main point : fonts on safari browser compared to other windows based browser on windows, fonts on the safari browser has a soothing effect. it is worth to understand why mac fonts are so soothing compared to fonts in windows.
windows follow what is called as a true type font. i wont talk much about this coz people have already posted tons of info on this here, here and here
you can understand these technology buy visiting this site http://www.grc.com/ctwhat.htm
well the main reason of this post is , how to get the safari kinda fonts on your windows. this is not a rocket science. This is there in windows XP from quite some time. All you need to do is just use the feature provided :)
Go to desktop properties by right clicking on the desktop and select properties
select the Appearance tab and then click on "Effects" button.
check "Use the following method to smooth. . . . ." if unchecked
and in the drop down menu below select "Clear type" say OK, apply and its done.
the fonts may appear burr but that is what we expect from a clear type font.
Note: the effect is to be observed on an LCD monitor
AS i said am not teaching are writing any new recipe. its just that not many people [whom i know] knew about this
