Antialias font-face embedded text in Windows?

Is there any way to make the fonts render as anti aliased in Windows, when using font-face embedding?

http://code.google.com/webfonts looks much better on Ubuntu/Mac, as compared to Windows 7 (tried chrome/firefox)

I just found a great solution for this old problem. If you serve the svg format of your font before woff, Chrome on windows will anti-alias and render your font properly.

I'm using this technique on my demo page here. You can see the headers and the icon fonts are all smooth and properly anti-aliased.
