All I want for Christmas is anti-aliased fonts

[Pyrosophy]

Ok, I've done a bunch of reading on the new Xfree86 release and I've seen notes about a rendering protocol that will allow anti-aliased fonts. The ONLY thing I sigh about when booting up my Linux machine is the fonts in X/Gnome.

Is 4.0.2 my godsent Christmas present? I hear that certain libraries need to be updated to use the new rendering protocol, but after this change, will I have pretty fonts (like in that other operating system whose only strength is pretty fonts)? Will the fonts be as pretty?

And if so, does anyone want to come to my house for a party?

To answer your first part conserning Xfree86;
If you want anti-alias'd font now, get BeOS http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/smile.gif

As for you house party;
I'm 300 miles away. So unless you're paying for the flight, count me out.
