In the Panther pages describing its new features, Apple lists a change to its anti-aliasing algorithm:

Finer LCD Font Antialiasing With “Micro-pixel Positioning”
Read text more easily on flat panel displays.

I was wondering if anyone has noticed an improvement in readability ...?

Yes, I think the fonts are much clearer and look much nicer.
