I feel all special that I can now engage in all the Mac talk.
I belong....
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It's weird, but I didn't really like Macs until a few years ago - I just wasn't impressed by the OS. But once OS X had been around a bit and was stable, I was like, "Unix operating system with a better GUI than Linux, plus beautiful hardware - cool!"

Is there a setting on Macs to sharpen screen fonts, for use with an LCD screen, much like mine? (I'd found and implemented the same setting on my PC)

Yes.
Um... let me try to find it....
eta: Go to System Preferences / Appearance. At the bottom there's a thing on "font smoothing."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, my poor head.
There's something in this CSS that means that IE browsers (at least IE 6) aren't showing the image here. Firefox and Opera have no problem viewing the little boy.
I'm blanking on this.
Help!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Oh, is that what happens when I can't see pictures in LJ entries? Huh.

I'm not sure. And it's not just the pic, but also the caption, I just noticed.
Okay, that might help the debugging...

And lo! I've changed #content {position: absolute} to #content {position: static} and it seems to be fine.
Which is code for "has broken something else, just you wait."

Just be careful with all the settings like font smooth on that box. It's a geriatric G3 and all of those little settings are hits against your processor speed. If it starts to feel overly sluggish those are the things to start to turn off.
