Heh, Yes, ClearType is turned off by default. Right-click on the desktop, choose Properties, tab to Appearance -> select Effects and change the "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts" to ClearType.

If it's so good, why is it turned of by default?

Well, it looks different for sure - not sure if it's better? I guess I need to get used to it. Thanks Wayne!

It made my screen look worse. Some areas good, but others blurry.

Because it's a performance hit?
