Windows xp launches with Clear Type support:
Microsoft's finest achievement with Windows XP may
have nothing to do with flashy features. The new operating system uses
Microsoft's ClearType font-rendering technology, which makes text viewed
on liquid-crystal displays (LCD) unbelievably sharp.
In their lead Windows XP launch article c|net identifies ClearType as one of Windows XP's main highlights.
Better text: For those using LCD monitors—with either desktop or notebook PCs—ClearType technology offers substantially sharper text than any other Windows version and most other operating systems.
