Hating on Computer Modern (ok, probably now Latin Modern) is something close to blasphemy.

Computer Modern was not designed for easy viewing on screens (think about the screens Knuth would have been using in 1977), it was designed for printing in books.

Hating Computer Modern is entirely reasonable for anyone who cares about typography.

I hate Computer Modern, and I'm not even particularly fussy about typefaces.
