I've never had a problem with the font size with Ubuntu, or with Windows
to be honest. I've assisted a lot of users with their desktops over the
years and the only reason I've ever heard for adjusting the font is due
to eyesight issues, which as has been mentioned previously is available
via Universal Access. Even in windows you don't change the fonts manually.
I should note that I use Ubuntu on a 13" macbook and on a 30" monitor
for a pc, i've never used it on a netbook so I cannot comment on how it
appears on a 10" screen.
Btw, the issue raised about using a web browser and the font it uses
compared to the system font, well to me that would be more a defect with
the web browser if it doesn't try and match font size with the OS. In my
experience people who don't like the font size in a web browser use the
size option for the web browser.
That said I'd never noticed the difference in font size between the OS
and Firefox until it was mentioned in this thread. It doesn't bother me,
in fact if the font of the OS was smaller it would irritate me. Maybe a
sign of my age, but to me ease of seeing OS related text is far more
important than the size of the text in an article or in a document. I
don't think it's reasonable to state they should all be the same size.
Just my 2c worth.
James.
