Lol. Blame MS - default setting.
I do prefer sans-serif fonts in general for specs/reports/quotes though - fancy fonts just get in the way of the damn content.
I've found mporting into Goodle docs mangles most of my historic invoices, quotes etc which use tables a fair bit - hopefully MS web apps will at least be compatible with their own products.
Seems no less snappy so far than Google docs, and kinda-surprisingly-for-MS (although given the target of almost-any-device-compatibility, less so) it doesn't seem to rely on any client-side MS/Adobe crap being installed, nor Java (so far).
I'll be interested to see what speedup Mark's JS JIT project will bring to these sites.
Complete .doc/x compatibility is a big deal for me, since Google docs really isn't quite there yet imo, and reformatting documents after importing them gets old real fast.
