Hi Rachel,
If you change:
font-family: Courier, "Courier New", monospace;
to:
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;
it will work on PC IE too.
At least on my Windows system Courier is a raster font, not true type,
and thus doesn't scale to all sizes. "Courier New" on the other hand is
a TT font. I don't know why other browsers scale Courier, maybe they
take care of it independently, whereas MSIE relies on the OS.
