What's your favorite system font ?

[garikfox]

I tried alot so far, basic system-Sans, Mac OS-X, M$, Bitstream, DejaVu Sans etc...

Which one do you all think looks the best on your system.

(i.e: I like my Linux to look like a Mac etc.)

I myself ended up using "DejaVu Sans-Book" 10pt., 87DPI, Greyscale, None on the hinting part.

To me it look's as close to a Mac, LOL

Fontin Sans as a general system font.

Well, I'm kinda "forced" to use the **** proprietary M$*!#@ Tahoma, because it's the only font that can be gracefully scaled down on my laptop LCD screen with ClearType enabled. Almost anything else will get completely unreadable below size 7 or 6. This is particularly annoying when surfing the Web (HTML coders should be banned from overabusing small fonts; they are apparently so convinced that less is more and that small is beautiful, that they are progressively applying less and less common sense and smaller and smaller IQs).
I am open to suggestions though! Anyone know of good FLOSS fonts that are actually usable with ClearType on a LCD at sizes below 7? Beauty is of secondary importance to me: readability and first-rate subpixel rendering (ClearType) come first.

Dajavu Sans is my favorite. Think it would be nice to add Liberation to the list as it's included as default in openSUSE 11.1 (& also comes very close to other well known fonts).

Calibri! imported from the Vista partition, one of the things I DO like about Vista.
