My standard procedure for any browser that I try.  Don't think
I missed too many ways of changing the font sizing.  I was even
bitching about win7 until I found that the method of changing the
system font was changed from winxp & references to it were hidden.

Still doing the min font size even when using nosquint.  Then the
minimum font sizing don't work on a Mac & not all what a browser
displays is controlled by the font size in the browser.  e.g. the
menu toolbar is controlled by the system font & can't be changed
by the browser.

At least in windows, there is a way to change fonts & sizes for
different parts of the panels & a separate font/sizing for the
desktop icons.  Apple wants the user to do things the Apple
way in lowering the resolution of a hi-rez monitor to see larger
fonts.
