While this might seem a good idea at first glance, the problem is that 
it relies on a certain arrangement of sub-pixels. If the monitor doesn't 
use RGBRGB but rather RGBRGB, organizes sub-pixels vertically instead of 
horizontally, or uses a 2x2 matrix, the whole benefit of the font goes 
down the drain, and may actually be counter-productive.

That's why ClearType, when you first use it on a computer, annoys you 
with questions about "which of these looks best?"
