Anonymous Pro – a fixed-width font designed for coders

I take this as confirmation of my choice- Consolas. 2nd favorite by a close margin, and it's usually already installed!

Only on Windows Vista/7/8.

I pointed it out because many people use Windows XP, OS X, Android, or iOS. All those OSes (as well as UNIX clones and variants) don’t come with the font pre-installed.

But he/she said usually, not always. And yeah, a ton of people use windows 7/8 so he/she can say that.

Consolas is nice, but for me it is too small for 10pt, and too large for 11pt.

I use Linux and install always Consolas.

Programmers designing fonts is cute but it's not good idea. Lucas de Groot knew what he was doing.

I like Inconsolas for Linux instead of Consolas.
