Whoa the font on this site is unreadable. Seriously how did y'all do it.

  I can't speak directly for the trs80, but on the Apple 2 the aspect ratio of the pixels were different. So on the screen the font read like a modern font today (at much low res) - but the letters were "square". When those fonts though are drawn on today's screens they appear tall and skinny. Which makes them hard to read. From memory, the default text mode for an Apple 2 was 40 wide by 20( 24?) high. (There was also an 80char card that allowed it to be 80x20, but there the text looked skinny.) So it wasn't as bad then as it looks now. And we had, perhaps, much lower expectations :)

  It looked much better on a CRT monitor.
