Bitmaps are great in terminal windows, but for apps like browsers where they can't be used easily, that's still fine because you can work around it.

Simply turn off anti-aliasing, and use a period-specific font that was designed for presentation without anti-aliasing such as the MS core truetype fonts (e.g. Verdana, Arial, etc.) It will look fine IF you have full hinting turned on.
