Monospaced fonts CAN scale
Like many programmers, I have a couple of favorite fixed-width "coding fonts" that I use for writing and viewing source code, however most of them are bitmap based and do not scale up "prettily" by any means.
Fortunately there are some great monospaced fonts that do scale up nicely. In my experience, it is important for me to use both my own favorite fixed-width fonts, and the great fixed-width ones below. This is because at small sized, most vector-based fonts like some below look fantastic at larger sizes, like on web pages or in print, but look fuzzy or blurry in the 8-12pt range in notepad++, gedit, etc. Conversely, my favorite bitmap based fonts only look good at one size, usually in the 8-10pt range, and are pixelated and blocky at larger sizes.
