This font is really screwed up. I see caps and non caps in almost every word. I hope treehouse didn't pick this font on purpose because it really sucks.

What OS? Microsoft is not the answer. Microsoft is the question. Linux is the answer.

10,460 PointsThe reason why I ask is that while I myself love Linux, it uses a different font-type than other OS's that can really change how things look. There is of course the possibility of it being a fallback font, but I wouldn't assume that to be the case here. If you modify your system font, does it effect how it looks on the page? (Sorry, I know it's tedious, just thinking through the steps)

26,676 PointsYep, looks like it's an issue with how Linux handles font kerning for the vast majority of custom web fonts, I looked around and couldn't find any posts with a solid fix.

Courses Plus Student 17,967 PointsI just deal with it. I have bigger issues to resolve like black screen when I try to log in from the GUI. I have to go to the non-GUI interface and log in. When I run startx I get no hardware acceleration mode and some other annoying bugs. But is all basically works.....
