Your font is fine. Use whatever you like. Main thing I look for is fonts that differentiate between things like 0Oo and lI1. I prefer open source fonts too. Just don't use a non-monospaced font.

Yes! And same--the THINK IDEs spoiled me.
But it's so much easier to get your mixed tabs and spaces aligned correctly with a non-monospaced font!
