I remember that rendering also changed with an updated version of DW that also SP1 of win7 has.
Yep it was, but still Firefox uses Natural as default, not Natural Symmetric and thank God for this, because Asians fonts in this mode looks like crap (over-bolded)
OK, I know it's funny, so lets stop this pointless conversation. You like one method, I like another one. So we won't get simply some consensus in this discussion
And I give you my arguments, some of it were screenshots in bug.
I asked also this if you could perform one, so I will see this how it looks on your end with all 7 values.

If they care, they will use mode "2" as workaround for meantime to get old font rendering.
@ DEΧTER - Could you please provide some screenshots with comparing all 7 values ? It will be very helpful

It's not about switching like Opera or Chrome into GDI and not using DirectWrite. It's about using GDI Classic mode rendering in DirectWrite, so font's will look the same like in old days.
@ Bruce L. - disabling HW Acc should bring old rendering mode in Fx4

They only for now add options in about:config, so I don't think masses will use/change it...
