Whose screen is it anyway?

What is it lately with all these Mac sites that are rendered in such tiny fonts? Not to pick on macupdate (really, I just found it [via Mac Net Journal]), but I'd need a magnifying glass to see some of this stuff. Oh, I see, they use CSS style sheets, and nicely set everything to 9 points. It could be worse, the default font could be Arial (it's Geneva). I bet this looks great in Classic, but I'm not about to go find out.

My take? Play with fonts all your want, but try to avoid forcing 9 point fonts. Ouch.
