proper way to uninstall fonts?



A recent issue of "Smart Computing" magazine in an article "Speed up Your
PC" suggests uninstalling some fonts. It says that Windows loads all fonts
into memory.

My fonts folder has hundreds of fonts. There seems to be 3 types as
indicated by the icons. The icons show either a TT, an O or an A. I presume
some are system fonts and shouldn't be deleted.

So, assuming some are safe to delete (to be determined)- just delete them?
Any potential negative effects?

Are there any MS articles on the subject? Any advice?
