What font and icon size do you guys use for HTPC web browsing and gaming? I'm sitting about 7' away from a 37" 1080p set and am curious what settings you use for readable web pages and settings on the computer.

When gaming or watching movies the DPI doesn't mess with those settings, just for everyday desktop ones.
Using Windows XP,
Start>Settings>Control Panel>Display>
Settings Tab>Advanced Button>General Tab> DPI to Large (may require a reboot)
