On a 17" LCD @ 1280x1024, I'm currently using:
   Annandale Mono
   11pt
   AA turned on

But that's only in TM -- when in BBEdit, I was using Monaco at 9pt with 
no AA...

I think my point is that in a few days I can get used to anything, but 
evidently I like my fonts a lot smaller than you do.

Annandale Mono looks good at 14pt with AA off, and good at 16pt with AA 
off too -- give it a try?
