If you use ClearType then you may find the Consolas Font Pack for Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 useful.
Optimized for Microsoft ClearType
The Microsoft Consolas Font Family is a set of highly legible fonts designed for ClearType. It is intended for use in programming environments and other circumstances where a monospaced font is specified. This installation package will set the default font for Visual Studio to Consolas.
Ok, it does look a bit typewriterish, but that's the point. However, you do get slightly more text on the screen than you do with the standard Courier New font both vertically and horizontally. It's worth a try anyway. It's easy to switch off if you don't like it. In Studio, goto Tools, Options, Environment, Fonts and Colors and click the use defaults button.
