There are some older computers/operating systems where it's difficult if
not impossible to change the resolution.  In my school, for example, they
had some old Macs with less than 640x480 up until last year.  Also, for a
page to print on most/all printers, the content shouldn't exceed  515-550
pixels.  That said, I must admit that I (almost) always browse the web at
1024x768...which is why I really dislike pages where the text isn't
contained by a table of some sort.  Reading all the way across the screen
is a pain...so, advice for beginners: keep the number of words per line
around 15 (which changes with font size, of course :\ ).  I'll stop
rambling now.

(...) 1024x768? Hmmm.. I must be the only one that uses 1280x1024! ;) But then again, I've got my video card/display properties set up so that I can instantly switch from 1024x768 to 1280x1024.

I have a 14 inch and 15 inch monitor and I see no reason why you can't design a page to at least 1024 by 768. I have no problem seeing pages on either monitor. I can even put the 14incher into 1600x1200 with no problems.. of course it is a .25dpi (...) (25 years ago, 18-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)
