about 700 years ago, give or take a century, they invented these things 
called 'eyeglasses' for us older folks.

I'm 57, have typical age induced astigmatism and have worn bifocals 
since I was about 45...  I use high res screens and have no trouble with 
the centos site's readability, its fonts are the standard size for the 
DPI I choose on my screens (typically 100dpi), with standard system 
defaults, the centos fonts are pretty much the same size as wikipedia, 
google searches, and nearly every other website.

I rather strongly dislike 'easy reader' pages with giant fonts, they 
feel like they are dumbed down for 1st graders and take far too much 
scrolling to read any significant content.


Anyways, most every browser has a zoom function for those who refuse to 
wear corrective lenses, often alt + and alt - ...
