Of course, it is matter of opinion, but I really do not understand why
one should use Computer Modern fonts on display. They are really very
nice but with resolution less than 600dpi they are more or less useless
(too thin lines)---their lines are too thin even with some non-Laser
printers. On cca 120dpi monitor (more likely 72dpi) they are just
awful. I don't even use Times, which are much better in this
regard---M$ Verdana is what I have settled on so far.
But as I said, it is matter of opinion.

P.S.: Concerning chilling out---it doesn't hurt to show that something
is important (see below :-).
