dejavu is our default, but I use liberation-fonts 1.04 now and I have to say
the difference to the arial webfont I used before is not noticable to my
font blind eyes :)

"font blind eyes" may be a part of the problem. Is someone with thorough
typographical knowledge involved in the decision process on fonts?

As someone with strong interest in typography and fonts, I can say that
for me the look of the fonts on the screen was not only once the reason
for me not to upgrade the system. (Mostly because of this, I still use
SuSE 10.0 at work, since the look of fonts there is much superior
compared to openSUSE 11.0.) I think, it would beneficial for the user
experience of openSUSE, if the look of fonts (on the screen) would
stronger be taken into account.

Regards,

Marc
