:jfkthame, can you commet to the bug?

Priority: -- → P3

This looks like the ClearType antialiasing is much too strong for the light-on-dark text; maybe the wrong gamma is applied, or something like that?

The dark-on-light text is also ClearType-antialiased, but the color fringing is much less glaring there.

Lee, any thoughts on what might be wrong here?
