The article says of Consolas: "Too bad it’s not free … if it was, it would be #1 on this list." Consolas actually can be downloaded for free, legally. If you're on Windows, you can download an installer for the font directly from Microsoft at: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=22e69ae4-7e40-4807-8a86-b3d36fab68d3&displaylang=en http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=22e... If you're on a Mac, slightly more effort is required. Instructions can be found at: http://www.wezm.net/2009/03/install-consolas-mac-osx/ http://www.wezm.net/2009/03/install-consolas-mac-osx/ Though, actually, you don't have to use the Terminal. You can just right-click the XML File Format Converter installer, "Show Package Contents," and navigate to the font installer package.
