I'm using OS X 10.6.7 and I've noticed that the fonts look annoyingly uneven, especially when looking at them on an external monitor (Dell U2311H in my case). Some of the letters look thinner than others, while those others appear bolder, which is pretty frustrating.
For example:
1. Let's say I wrote lots of l-s in a row, as in llllllllllll - some of them will look really thin, others however, will look kind of bolder/thicker and messy. The way the above l-s appear for me right now is the 1st l looks really thin, the 2nd and 3rd are bolder, the 4th is thin again, etc.
2. Another example is the word Hip-Hop in iTunes - the 1st "H" in Hip appears real thin, while the "H" in Hop looks uglier - sort of bold/messy.
Is there a fix for this at all? For some reason I have a feeling that this has been specifically the case lately (perhaps after updating to 10.6.7?), and not so apparent when I first bought my external monitor (I could be wrong). Well, to be honest, I've noticed slight unevenness in fonts on my MBP's monitor before, but it's obviously not as apparent as on my external monitor.
