After searching high and low for many years, I've settled on Akkurat Mono--a commercial font, well hinted, and gorgeous on Mac OS X.

Wow thats a beautiful font, thanks

Edit: 190.380 USD or 140 EUR, Really? How can a font be that expensive?... I could pay 10 to 20 euro but man, the price of this font is almost half of my rent...

Edit 2: Just discovered Inconsolata, also beautiful, and free http://www.levien.com/type/myfonts/inconsolata.html

It's expensive, true: but if you value your eyes, you should get something which is not fuzzy at common point sizes, but is still readable and with pleasing shapes even when rendering with sub-pixel anti-aliasing.

I do like Inconsolata as well.
