A better font for [code] tag?

Hello DIC,
Your current font used in the "code" tag strains the eyes. Could you perhaps switch to another font like Consolas?


Consolas Font Example

Some reference (with pictures)

I don't think that's a web safe font. Would have to be a font that everyone has in order to support it in all browsers and OS's

I think the current font is actually very good in terms of size, color and appearance

Not saying I agree with the need for a new font, personally I think the current one is fine. But just for reference:

Of course, it has its cons as well. (Obvious one being added bandwidth)

Just throwing it out there. :)
