    Yes. You can even change the font and font size.

    I have not tried in Windows 7, but I've attached a screen dump from Windows XP showing where you can adjust it. Hopefully it is similar in Windows 7.

    My pleasure. I fiddled around with the font, size and color for 5 minutes - only to set it all back to the default. Everything else just seemed to look awkward. I think working on so many ThinkPads over the years has brainwashed my visual preferences :D
