Blech, all-caps large bold Arial just screams “I DON’T KNOW WHAT HELVETICA IS.”

Love that a Maddox page hit HN front page, though. It’s like a blast from the past, but new.

Edit to make this comment slightly more acceptable on HN: CSS protip: If you want to show Helvetica to OS X users but not Windows users who are lucky enough to have it installed because Windows renders Helvetica like shit, use this font stack:

  font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial,
    Helvetica, sans-serif;
