[Thinkpad] Font sizes

Simple: go to Display Properties | Advanced | General
| Font Size and choose "Large Fonts", then reboot.
This should turn up the font sizes in every
application that is correctly programmed (not all of
them are). Then you can also goto Display Properties |
Appearance and adjust the font sizes for the window
titles and icons and stuff the way you like it (I find
they get too big when "Large Fonts" is selected).

Also you can further adjust the font sizes/zoom in
most programs like IE, Word and Acrobat.

Also if "Large Fonts" still isn't large enough, you
can choose "Custom Size" and put rediculously huge
numbers in there if you want.
