String shows by means of "Firebug's element inspection" a font-weight of 400. On screen no difference is seen with ordinary text of font-weight 100. I use 18pt Times New Roman in Firefox-4.0.1. Same site seen by IE-9 gives clear distinction between font-weights.

Font-weight 400 is normal.
If you want bold then set font-weight to 600 or more.

This means that for fonts that provide only normal and bold, 100-500 are normal, and 600-900 are bold.
