Okay, so the cleartype font in IE7 has really grown on me.

Does anyone know of a way I can use CSS to render a similar look in all browsers?
 
There's no CSS. But in your WinXP under Display properties, tab appearance you can find a button called effects. Under the new window, you can see a checkmark and a dropdown saying Use the following method to smooth the edges of screen fonts and in the dropdown you should select ClearType instead of standard. After that all your windows will be using ClearType fonts. Mac and Linux users have been using similar anti-aliasing techniques on fonts for years.
