Nope Ive been using Tahoma for a long time now. Its not just tahoma that is 
funny, its most of them. 
If you try turning of Anti-Aliasing on fonts below a certain point site ( 
Xftconfg ) you get even worse results.
Ive done the fetchmsttfonts thing just to be certain.

There is something weird with the font setup. believe me.
