Some of you may know that Windows Vista introduced a range of new fonts. So, in the spirit of "progresssive enhancement", why not use these fonts in your font-face stack? Only users with Vista ot Windows 7 will see them but that's quite a high proportion of users, and that's likely to grow very soon. This article (http://modernl.com/article/new-vista-fonts-and-the-web) covers the new fonts.

I like this approach and works well with Dan Cederholm's point that websites don't have to look the same in every browser.

It allows the designer the odd bit of self-indulgence and rebellion against the often limiting parameters of the web.

Even if only the chosen few get to see your site in its intended glory, why not let them have it?!
