It is not the only one.

Arial, Times New Roman and Courier New (that you can download from
MS-Typography) give you a basic set (sans, serif, and monospace) of
unicode fonts.

Other unicode fonts that include hebrew:

windows:
tahoma, lucida sans (?), lucida console (?)

XFree 4 comes with a misc-fixed iso10646-1 font that also includes hebrew
glyphs. It is suitable for a terminal, and it is much better than question
marks for menus. Currently mozilla defaults to using 'fixed' font for the
Hebrew encoding (as a safe choice)
