> Pure black text on a pure white blackground is too much contrast
As a mac and windows user, I find this correlates heavily to the OS being used as the font rendering is very different. Black on white is very readable on windows, it looks like hell on a mac.

- mbell 14y agoI used linux and windows as my primary OS's for a long time and recently picked up a macbook air. I thought there was something wrong with it for a fews hours due to how 'blurry' the font rendering was and I still have the hinting turned down. I'll give you that its "prettier", but easier to read.....no.....
- mark-r 14y agoThe new Retina displays for the Macbook should fix that problem nicely. You'll get sharpness and beauty at the same time.
