AFAIK, Chrome/Windows does not do font antialiasing/smoothing, which it does do on Linux and OSX.

More important than "smoothing" - the font baseline is all over the place

Yep, it's the baseline. It looks even worse in IE11

Normally comments like mine can be a bit pedantic, but in this case it's the front page of something that 'builds beautiful programming books', so I think relevant.

It still looks terrible on Linux for me as well.
