Remember those Microsoft Core Web fonts? That nice little collection you could download for free over at MS Typo? Remember how Microsoft decided to stop that quietly a couple of years back? Guess what? Now, you lucky Linux and other operating system users can pay hundreds upon hundreds of dollars to get them again! I'm so happy I could poo! Thank you Ascender Corp, you are our friend, and we don't think you're completely taking advantage, using phrases in your press release such as "Ascender is proud to offer such an important set of fonts to end users [...] as they enable the best web browsing experience." As if somehow you are being a loving typographic facsimile of a Werthers Originals grandpa handing out candy to blond haired perfect children, when all you're really doing is protecting shareholder value in a cynical move that shows once more the difference between my side of the Atlantic, and yours: goodwill.
Thanks to Michael Oswell for noticing the typo
