    So we've decided that Helvetica, Arial, and Tahoma are bad. So just for the record, Georgia, Times New Roman, and Courier New be damned!

    Helvetica is overused, but it is a very functional typeface nonetheless. Especially Helv. Neue with all it's variants. That's not to say that I'm not tired of projects that require Helvetica & Bodoni :|

    Arial & Tahoma are just plain shitty. Poorly drawn. Arial is the unwanted bastard child of Helvetica, Univers, & Frutiger. Stupidest looking 'R' I've ever seen.

    Georgia is a very good screen font. Not for print, as many people apparently don't know.
