Ugly fonts in X

[Kent West <westk@nicanor.acu.edu>]

I've only been using Linux for less than a year, and have only in the past
6 months or so gotten X and Netscape working fairly well, and only in the
past few weeks gotten WordPerfect working fairly well, and etc. 

One of the big things I've noticed coming from a Windows world is that the
fonts tend to be UGLY and hard to read. This has been true on the 4 or 5
different machines I've tried.

Am I missing something, or are the fonts "supposed" to be ugly?
