I am using tiny fonts for things that are not as important (like menu bars, for example) and bit fonts for text that I really want to read. To me, that's the real use of this 150 dpi screen - save a lot of screen real estate where readability does not matter and get beautiful glyphs where you have text that you actually want to use. One thing that really annoys me though is how those brain dead fixed width website designs break down big time when I increase the font size from say 10px to 30px in order to get a reasonable size on the screen... - Bartosz
