I don't know what you say. Suggestion tho to use the
same monospace font for everything in one frame, but
with different windows.

There are several ways to do that but it is easier if
you just use the same .emacs with a branch on some
variable, then set it to different values for the
different computers and get the desired options.

Yes, merge both solutions, then turn one chunk of
setup code for one case and the other for the other.
