Easier to read? Monospaced. But I find serif more aesthetically pleasing.

no you cannot vote on comic sans.

monospaced is not necessarily a serif font as displayed here. the so-called "system" font for example is sans serif AND monospace.

Fixedsys is monospaced
Fixedsys is monospaced like system

i like sans serif fonts more than serif ones on computer, but serif ones better in print.

Georgia is a nice computer font though-- like TNR but with horizontal instead of diagonal serifs

i refuse to vote on this strange poll.

I do prefer my dangly bits.

So do the ladies.

But Times New Roman particularly reminds me of decades of essay writing about which I have mixed feelings.
