The biggest factor for me with fonts is readability (I have my notepad++ default to verdana at 16pt font on a 1080p monitor which is my ideal). It's probably worth mentioning that my eyesight isn't great and I think I have some kind of brain related trouble with print.

Segoe is okay, but the font is really thin and the spacing is too narrow for me.

yeah I said for big sizes. 16 is more mid, and not perfect for segoe's thin lines. i think verdana is still a bit too bulky for 16 but for any kind of vision impairment it should be great. you might want to try trebuchet. another low contrast default ms font but it's a bit more humanist and pleasing to look at in those sizes.
