>No, no, no, you got it all wrong! The best font is called "9x15"
>(Netscape calls it "Fixed (Misc), size 14.0").

The differences I see from FixedSys to VK's
font are the following...
-VK's commas have longer tails
-VK's underlines do not connect- long underscores don't occur (they do in
FixedSys)
-VK's apostrophe appears in the opposite direction than the ` character...
 (rather than just a dot)
-VK's pic appears wider in her font
-VK's slashes are at a slightly less angle than FixedSys...

I just downloaded Topaz (my birthstone, BTW) and will compare that one!  :)
