Half a dozen of my colleagues browse at 1600x1200 with browser set to
maximum window height, and a width of about 1000px. I've seen clients
using IE at 3/4 screen width on a 1024 monitor. Neither of those
points should make any difference to design, as optimizing a design
for one particular screen size and letting it automatically "degrade"
is perfectly acceptable.
