On a related note, after I started using a Mac, I have found that there are cases where I won't even be able to detect a link, because the underline is so hard to see in the first place, so I have decided to use `background-color` for links (with horizontal padding) instead - especially if people only skim my writing.

I do make the links underlined in print.css, though.

Just consider testing the readability of your link emphasis, before you obsess too much over how your underlines look. :)
