andale mono is a very good font for terminals, courtesy of M$. It works
very well in tn5250 in Linux (though I prefer the default font too), so I
assume it will be fine in Windows. It seems quite similar to the 3270 IBM
font that Client Access uses, where zeros have a dot in the centre to
differentiate from a capital O. It's one of the fonts M$ provides 'free',
in the interests of common browser fonts.
