Consider me cued. Not queued, that's something else.
I just dislike looking at the weak copy of Helvetica that Microsoft calls Arial, so I will replace it with some neo-grotesque that is close to the designer's intent. Helvetica is an easy choice.
(Note that Arial itself was intended as a replacement for
Helvetica when Helvetica is not available. Now that design in Arial is more common, it hardly feels wrong to replace Arial with the original -- and more-pleasing -- Helvetica. Personal preference yes, but what higher motivation is there?)
Don't get me started on Verdana.
But they did a pretty good job with Tahoma at least.
