Some people think it's the worst font ever. I like it. Let's fight about it!

It's owned and distributed by teh evil Microsoft empire, therefor it's a loathsome abomination that kills puppies in its free time and makes baby Jesus cry.  On the other hand, Apple's Chalkboard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chalkboard_(typeface)) is made of pure awesome sauce, cures breast cancer, and has been known to cause spontaneous orgasms in its users.

Huh? People are fighting over fonts? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comic_Sans#Ban_Comic_Sans_movement

There's even an ongoing movement?! Damn, that's... so... very... STUPID! It's a freaking font people!  :roll:

Also, I fail to see much, if any noticeable difference between Comic Sans and Chalkboard. As far as looks, they are pretty much the same ie: so so. I guess if one was a livid apple fanboy, they might think it's the best thing ever, just because it came from Apple.  [-(

Why the hell would Apple choose to mimic a much hated font, and furthermore why is the M$ version the only one with a movement to get it banned?  :-k

I can understand the hate for m$, as that is well deserved. Seriously though, of all the reasons to hate M$, a font should be far down the list I'd imagine.
