Font smoothing on OS X (snow leopard)
For some reason, the font rendering on external screens result orrible unless the light version of font anti-aliasing method is set in System Preferences / Appearance . Unfortunately, Apple have removed this option from the System Preferences pane but there is a command line solution for this.
Open a terminal and type the following command:
defaults -currentHost write -globalDomain AppleFontSmoothing -int 1
