Well: I have just played one of those merry "Compare and Contrast" 
exercises much beloved by EFL teachers
like myself:

1. LC 6.1 Community on UbuntuStudio Linux 13.04

2. LC 6.1 Community on Windows 7 (VMware)

3. LC 6.1 Community onMac OS 10.6.7 (VMware)

All on a 1920 x 1080 27 inch display.

Precious little difference between them all, and all as clear as each 
other, and as other applications.
