Help: Which font?

Help: Which font?

Hi,
I'm trying to find a decent looking font that doesn't distort ASCII art
pictures. For example; right now I am using "Arial" to type this. "Arial"
distorts ASCII art though so, I can't use this font all of the time.
"Courier" and "Fixedsys" work just fine for ASCII art but I personally
think the fonts are ugly. Their too "chunky" and plain looking. :-)
So, can I find a happy font in-between? Is there a font that looks nice
kind of like "Arial" and allows ASCII art at the same time?
What font do you all use? Thanks a lot!
