^^ Gill Sans is good, but I personally don't like that it's so round.

Forgot to mention: Univers is great also. :)
 
Helvetica and fonts that resemble Helvetica.

I also like Bookman Old Style and fonts that resemble it. When I'm reading an book, I like to see those old-fashioned numerals where some of them extend beneath the baseline, like 3, 5, 7 or 9 numerals that stick out a little beneath the line. Makes 'em all easier to read.

Ah, yes, descenders. Good stuff when laid out well.

Zapf Dingbats! :D

Whomever mentioned Garamond was spot on. Always swooned whenever I'd see Apple Garamond on their manuals as well as computers such as the Apple IIGS. Absolute perfection, font-wise.
