As in slightly blurry, as actually happens in higher resolutions.
For example, I am typing this on a PC running an Xserver at 1024x768,
and I can stretch the screen with a knob on the monitor by over
50% without getting black-lines between the rows; hence the lines
usually overlap.  Result?  With antialiased images, I see no pixel
borders at all!
