I would concur that 1792x1344 and 2048x1536 are NOT mainstream
resolutions for 19" CRTs. I'd go further and say that regardless of
the monitor type and size, those are not mainstream (i.e. common)
resolutions. I'd be surprised if those resolutions are present on more
than one-tenth of one percent of all users.

I run 1600x1200 on a 21" CRT -- and almost everyone who looks at my
display comments about how tiny everything looks. I don't even
consider 1600x1200 to be mainstream.
