You *do* realize that the only Mac users that are going to be able to read
your text are ones with *very* good eyes? Windows fonts are rendered on
screen with a ratio of about 4 screen pixels to 3 points, while most Mac
browsers have a pixel to points ration of 1:1. Try looking at 9px type
instead of 9pt type and you'll see what a Mac user sees.

I'd suspect it's the underscore that's the culprit. Take it out and try it
again and see if it works.

Have fun,
