Comment (by dd32):

 Looking at the screenshots here, it's shouting cleartype or some kind of
 font smoothing for iammattthomas, and none for miqrogroove (good example
 here: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/cleartype/tuner/step1.aspx )

 IIRC, some windows XP graphics drivers included their own smoothing, and
 it was also different between LCD and CRT screens (and now VM's too)..
 even then, it's also going to depend on the font & screen resolution.

 I'm not sure there's anything we'll be able to do for those who have no
 kind of font smoothing enabled though.
