  • I'm not seeing much of a difference at all with the same versions. img.skitch.com/20110406-b39133874rmq56d2fdk9sfp9tp.jpg vs img.skitch.com/20110406-rsrg25i3hwaigsx8f5937nmmc9.jpg Perhaps this is something unique to your mac? in which case you might be better off over on apple-SE.

  • @cabbey - Thanks for taking a look. Happens on both my macs, so I hope they aren't both broken. I've updated with screenshots of what I'm seeing; maybe someone else can back one of us up.

  • @cabbey Mac OS X related questions are allowed and welcome here. If this were about an iOS device, you'd be right, but Macs are just computers. We also welcome ubuntu questions, even though there's AskUbuntu.

  • @Daniel, I know they're allowed, that's why I didn't vote off-topic and suggest a move... just saying that if it does turn out to be something wrong with Ian's mac, there might be a better density of gurus over on apple-SE than here on SU to get him fixed up.

  • @Ian, can you look in system preferences, on the appearance tab, what do you have set for "USE LCD font smoothing when available" and "turn off text smoothing for font sizes __ and smaller"?
