And the line height is at the minimal.
Back when computer monitors were VGA (640 x 480 px) sans serif was the best kind of fonts for reading on a screen. Most website designer understood that and specified sans serif fonts back in the day. But now that we have very high resolution screens I prefer serif fonts. They just look more like what we grew up reading in printed books. If Amazon had any sense, and apparently their Kindle designers are common sense challenged, they would have included at least one heavier serif font on the PW2.
