Visual Studio 2010 Code Font

so you upgraded from VS2005 or VS2008 to VS 2010 and you do not like the code view, meaning the font for the code in the new version looks weired and not clear?
a simple change to the options will set the font to the same font you used to see in previous versions of vs.net

basically the new visual studio 2010 uses the font called "Consolas", while the older version 2008 used the font, "Courier New", simply in visual studio .net 2010, go to Tool --> Options --> Environment --> Fonts and Colors and then on the right hand side change the font from "Consolas" to "Courier New".
screen shot is below:



you can see some Ron's code here!
