Not on my machine actually for it will be also up to the fonts installed
(identical settings given).
In my case our style 
body {font: 87.5%sans-serif;}li h2 {font-size: 1.4em; }
is displayed with Arial which is a narrow font and might not be
available on Ubuntu.

Anyways, we are looking for a solution, aren't we?

Interestingly if you compare the main downloads with dvd downloads the
latter 'h2' seems to be bigger than the first which wouldn't look better
if it was smaller. Admittingly no clue atm ...  anybody else?

Not hard but rather an usability issue and not really up to date
webstandard imho.

Size fits well for the main downloads, so my feeling is rather to
 - find out why h2 for dvds displays different from h2 for main installers
 - and/or improve description / link title for dvds as mentioned earlier
in this thread
 - and/or improve the button to leave more space to different fonts ameitt

For perfectionism we could also include the 'proper' fonts we want to
distribute in our theme to make sure they get displayed on machines
where they are not installed. And they should display correctly
"everywhere".
Suggestions are welcome.

Yup, one cannot help everybody   ;)  but we can "do our best"  (TM R.R.)
