Well, I think I am -- I choose larger size fonts for content, but small sizes where it influences title bars, icons, buttons, menus, etc -- because I like to be stingy with those non-content parts. What i was saying is that I accept the strain when I do need to actually read those things, for the savings in real estate. But, perhaps I'm missing what you are saying. >..
