How many of you actually use the "cleartype" option in Windows XP?

Is it just me or does cleartype make it harder to read things, even though everything is smoother. Myabe I'm just used to the standard setting?

Still helps on CRTs. I can definitely tell a difference with text - especially bolded.

I can't stand it on CRTs but it seems to help a lot when I enable it on the LCDs at school.

Just turned it on. Everything looks sort of blurry now. This blows, I'm switching back. This is on a Dell P1110, aka 21" trinitron. I'll try it on my laptop later to see if it's better on a LCD.
