Greetings!

I need a Macintosh screen font that's very easy on the eyes. I set my net
appls to 14 or 16 point default for screen display. At that size, both
Geneva and New York are "spindly", and Monaco--<shudder>.

I'm hoping someone has created a screen font suite that's optimized for
larger sizes. The base font would be much bolder--something like Espy--but
also have a bold and italic for use with my web browser.

Any pointers much appreciated.
