On: Chrome OS Looks to Refresh Standard Fonts

The biggest difference I see is in the monospace font. Courier is serif and Cousine is not. Serif fonts are good for coding but my guess is that anybody coding has a better font than Courier.

Keep in mind it's meant for low-resolution devices, where the serifs of Courier would feel lost.

Yes, it's a lot closer to Microsoft's Consolas than it is to Courier.
