I updated the Main.CSS file for a skin I am using to default body text to Arial. body {
font: normal arial; background: url(MaldenboBackFade.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat; color: black; margin: 0; padding: 0; }
it was - in the monobook original:
body { font: x-small sans-serif; background: #f9f9f9 url(headbg.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat; color: black; margin: 0; padding: 0; }
Only one of the 4 PC's we have displays Arial ?!! Firefox or IE makes no difference. Tried purging the caches (action=purge) with no change.
Any ideas?
There are special style sheets for other browsers. Just look in the same directory as main.css; there are a number of .css files targeting different browsers.

I don't know if font names are case sensitive in CSS but they might be. So I suggest changing arial to Arial and see if that helps.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/fonts.html#propdef-font http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/fonts.html#propdef-font-family
Also, check the validity of your CSS: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
