Actually I would suggest not using them. Linux install includes Deja vu and
Bitstream Vera families of font which are far superior to MS fonts as far as
visual effect is concerned.
I used to install ms fonts too. But I didn't have access to net for one
install and the default slackware install was so beautiful, I never turned
back.
The times and courier fonts bundled with X are not so good. But Deja Vu and
Bit stream are too good to be true.
