Consolas ... Sounds like a Mexican Restaurant

"Yes, I'll have your Binary Blob Burritos. My friend will have the
Entity-Relationship Enchiladas, and we'll have a side of QueryDef
Quesadillas"

Mmmm....

Joe,

I don't have VS 2005 installed - but I do have VB 2005 Express
installed, which is free.  Perhaps that helped.

Hi Dan,

When you installed this font, did you have VS2005 installed?
I went to install it and it kept coming back telling me that it was
interrupted before it could install. I don't have VS2005 installed.

Thanks,
Joe Rojas

MS has just released a new monospaced font intended for programming
environments.  I've tried it and I think it's easier to look at than
Courier New.

By the way, this web page says that this is only intended for VS 2005,
but the license itself says Windows OS or VS 2005.  Anyway, it shows up
in all font lists.
