How to get smooth fonts like Safari on Ubuntu

My main claim against using Ubuntu is that the font rendering is just ugly and uninspiring. I am no graphic designer, but I love seeing my XHTML rendered in Safari on OS X. Turns out there is a solution that makes Firefox on Ubuntu almost as good as Safari/OS X, and it’s quick, easy and free!
If you want the whole explanation, go to this article, but if you just want the fix, all you have to do is this:
Download this file and store it in your home folder (ex: /home/yourname) with the file name .fonts.config (remember the leading dot). Restart X (press CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE or log out and in again), and your fonts should be smooth as a you-know-who’s you-know-what.
Below are a few selected web sites captured before (left) and after (right) the font smoothing was enabled.
