See the shadow.jpg 	(kubuntu6.10 konq 3.5.5 default font)
See the shadowsmall.jpg (kubuntu6.10 konq 3.5.5) smaller font
See the shadowff2.jpg 	(kubuntu6.10 Firefox 2.0.0.6)
Firefox has the same problem with the font size.

The main problem with shadow is, i found in the past, is when 
it is used in a small width frame/div or other block element.
It can help to set the menu frame 20/30 px more wider (or make it resizeable).

In general the shadow makes it more readable here, but side effects can occur.

Alternating row color is just fine (for me) on both screens rows.jpg
Both are indeed LCD Flatpanel
