Boy, you're keen!

I'm still using my trusty PC with a 14" SVGA Monitor. I'm running Windows
with a screen 245mm wide by 185mm high (approx). I'm currently displaying
everything at standard VGA, 640 by 480 pixels.
These are the fonts that I can select. I've only measured the point size
that fills the full screen:
Font Points A/R
Courier 13 1.63 : 1
Courier New 15 1.90 : 1
Fixedsys 15 1.95 : 1 (The one that I use)
Terminal 12 1.55 : 1
Hope this helps with the list.
