Apple's site seems to suggest that the on screen fonts and windows might be a bit sharper. I had read this on a couple of other threads.

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding, and anti-aliased fonts are not going to look much different in Panther vs. Jag.
By the way, I see the thread was moved. Software. Not buying advice. Ah. I get it.
Thanks.

The other night I was working on my wife's PC in the basement. Granted, the monitor she has isn't the best. But, then I move back to my Mac with the 17" LCD Studio Display, and I couldn't get over how super sharp and clear it was compared to the CRT monitor she has.
I think people sit too close to their monitors and they can "see" the anti-aliasing of the fonts that make them "look" sharp. Or they can't get over that these "fuzzy" fonts can't possible look sharp. I don't seem to have a problem with them.
