Same here. I think that is the best size for my 17" monitor. I'll do a higher resolution when i get a bigger screen. Currently I'm eyeing up a 19" wide-screen, although I might go for bigger if I can afford it.

I didn't think that anyone used 800x600 anymore. Do those people also run windows 95, on a 133mhz pc, with a 10" monitor ?

Surprisingly, a large majority of people do use 800*600 still. I think you'd find if everyone on this site took part in the poll you'd find 800*600 the most popular resolution, but so far the majority of people who polled who use higher res seem to use their computer for techie stuff (or have laptops?). Joe Average who just surfs, types a few letters, whatever, doesn't bother upgrading their equipment that often, anmd doesn't bother with things like best screen resolution for the size of their monitors (I know someone who has a very expensive 21" Sony monitor and runs it at 800*600, he doesn't know any better).
I still have to build web sites at fixed page width to suit maximum 800*600, although I'd rather not. But it does look neater at higher res

In some ways monitor size is irrelevant nowadays. I have a 17" widescreen on my laptop, and the truth is I wish I bought something smaller and used higher screen resolution on it (it's a bugger to use on the train, for a start). But for PC, larger the better for me.

Not to flog an older topic, but thought I'd just share - on laptop its 15" @ something by something .. hang on ... 1440 x 900 and on the desktop well, its something silly due to 23" Apple Display and 32" TV being connected to teh G5 ... 32" mainly being used for WoW purposes *cough*
