This is quite the question for those designing web sites! There are a number of
tracking systems available which would give you the opportunity to learn about
the operating systems and browsers your visitors are using once you have your
web page up. Until then it is safer to design for more than one operating
system, browser, or screen resolution. The Macintosh users, for example,
probably see different fonts and HTML elements (e.g, Search button) than do
Windows users. Some visitors may have visual or aural impairments which make
fixed choices of text size, for example, unwise.

To answer your question specifically, at work I am supplied with Netscape
Navigator 4.75, I set it to 1600x1200. At home, I use Netscape Navigator 4.77
set to 1024x768 unless I am using the notebook's screen set to 800x600. I also
have (and even occasionally run) Netscape Navigator 3.01 (no style sheets!),
side-by-side mode IE 4.01 SP2 and IE 5.5.

This posting comes to Lugnet from an emulated Macintosh Quadra 605 in which I
use Netscape Navigator 4.04 at 600x480 although I do also have Internet
Explorer 4.01.

what internet browser and desktop resolution most people use the most.  I
would assume Internet Explorer 5, and 1024x780 resolution.  Please let me
know if you use the same, or if your settings are different. Thanks!
