I agree with that, however just saying "better" is probably too simple because
it can depend very much on the display screen that someone uses.

For example see the screen-photo below, taken from an average recent notebook
LCD with emacs-23.1 as released.  Sure in reality it's better than on the photo
but still some words such as "--no-loadup", "NULL" and "#ifdef" are almost not
readable.
