My point exactly!

Higher resolution is for clarity and bigger screens are due to the fact that we are impressed by large things. Keep in mind, just because some surfing fool has his/her screen res set above the good ol' 800x mark, it doesn't mean that they're viewing on a 19 or 23 inch monitor. I believe most users still employ a 17 inch monitor, as do I, and I'm here to tell you, most sites built for 1024x and above are really hard to read. I keep my res set at 800x600 because it's the most viewer-friendly resolution. Here's my piss poor analogy in action: I watch Deadwood on a 35 inch television. My friend watches it on his 50 inch television. We are watching are seeing the same picture. He doesn't see anything more than I do, he just see's it magnified.
