Thanks for the support :-)

I can understand Bob's point. I believe that the one browser or another
renders the font unreadable. I have took a glance with Netscape 4.78 on
Linux and representation is exactly the same as with IE on Windows.
However, I have 96dpi screen and True-Type fonts installed. Without
TrueType Verdana, X server would probably render bitmap (or Type1)
Helvetica at 8pt and that is, when measured in on-screen pixels, a lot
smaller than was the intention and indeed unreadable. 

However, I don't see what I could do about that. On a system which has
the right fonts and a proper rasteriser (which are all Windows, all
Macintosh and most Unix boxes), the site renders okay, exactly the way I
want to see it. I have neither time nor resources to test its appearance
on all possible platform/browser combinations.
