First off you did not take into account that another font could be shown on a computer without Arial installed, then you got the colour wrong and used a point size for the font.
I was going to mention that, but I know sonofkirk use windows, and windows has Arial installed.
A point is determined by taking 1 inch and dividing it by the ppi(also known as dpi), mine would be 0.0033 inches. It's not a good idea to use a measurement that is designed for the printing industry for a font that only going to be displayed on screen as that will change the depending on people's Photoshop and GIMP image ppi/dpi settings.
I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR STUPID CALCULATIONS YOU FOOL.
Pixels do not change and work much better.
That's cool. (?)
I got my results from the computed style of the element using the Firefox DOM Inspector. This is more accurate in this case as it shows the result of all styles, colour and formatting applied to the text and is different to what you said.
YOU SPENT TOO MUCH TIME HELPING OTHER PEOPLE.
Also, everything in this post from the second quote is a lie.
