You'd be wrong.  From my experience in a research lab where people
handles lots of text, people tend to go for the smallest font size
their eyesight can cope with.  Some of them bump on the pixel grid,
others don't.  That's with 1600x1200 20" screens (i.e. exactly
100dpi).  Ignoring half of them would be stupid.

  OG.
