Seriously though. It's really screwing with my head. EVERYTHING LOOKS DIFFERENT. The font sizes (maybe even font types) are bigger/different. :(

I swear these forums look different (same font type, different size). Then again, I may be playing with my Motorola Droid too much.

P.S. this phone is teh awesome

I have no idea if this is what you're seeing, but I remember reading that Chrome can use Microsoft's ClearType technology, and that some HTML generated with Word, or Word documents opened with browsers, can force ClearType to turn on.

ClearType will make your fonts look fat. Clever technology, some people like it, some people don't.
