I worked in a print shop where we had a binder with over 400 fonts. The differences were so subtle that they were sometimes almost impossible to distinguish. IIRC TNR was in there with a host of very similar surrounding fonts.

Not a single good font besides Garamond (actually based on a type of Jannon) on that chart. If that claim is true, never ask writers for typographic advice I guess.

How? Impact is a titling font meant for catching attention, decidedly non-neutral. Arial is an inconsistently designed Helvetica ripoff, it's more chaotic evil than anything. Calibri... who the fuck cares about these MS screen fonts anyway? I hope none of you use these in print works.

Courier is a really weird font to have on computers. If you want a fixed-width screen font, then you can't top IBM VGA 8, while Courier is just a reminder that typewriters can't kern.
