It is very true that the fonts are displayed surprisingly differently
in different monitors. The whole feel of them changes greatly.

I've been testing out different "preferred" fonts on my one web-site. I
had Arial for a few days but on some computers that looked very thin
and weak. Now I've got Trebuchet MS and I'm going to see how that
appears.

Because I work in an office environment 2.5 days in the week it is
quite a good opportunity to check out my web-site on different
monitors. They all have Windows but across the office is a variety of
screens. This is a very useful situation :)
