My CTX AMD K6-300/128 MB RAM/3 GB drive laptop is obviously at the end of its life. I was in the "shopping" process for a laptop for 2 months now, and I considered a number of PC laptops, including the Compaq Presario 1525US. At the end, I decided to get the new 12" Powerbook, came in last week, and I am since then using it as my primary machine. Here is what I think about it.

I'm looking at this page on my XP machine and my Powerbook right now, and I honestly can't see anything ugly about the fonts on my tiny little 12" screen.
I have noticed a few pages where the fonts were less than perfect, but I would never call these "ugly." With your background in GUI design, Eugenia, maybe these imperfections were more significant to you than to most people?
