Ok I've got two what the 'heck" were they thinking comments and looking for some solutions

1) Hardcoded pt sizes in the CSS that make it too hard to read for us presbyopics using high resolution monitors. It ought to respect my current browser text size settings.

2) On the table page, who decided that darker gray on dark gray was actually readable? I'm talking about the index space allocation numbers.

Now the other day I tried fiddling with the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\HTML\database.css by editting the the 8pt entries and bumping them to 11pt, but it does not appear to actually be reading the CSS when the taskpad opens.

I really wish that the solution would be as easy as tweaking a CSS file but so far that doesn't seem to be the trick.
