Looks like it Emacs still doesn't support anti-alias fonts like Bitstream Vera fonts... I love Emacs but this is really a shame.

That is the one single reason that prompted me to switch to gvim after using emacs for several years. I *hates* ugly fonts.

Check out the _latest_ emacs incarnation i.e. with the emacs-unicode-2 branch. It supports anti-aliased-fonts. More info is available here:
