It used to be the maximum possible resolution; it was very popular in
Windows 3.1 and 95, but it is falling out of use in favour of 800x600
(which is still ridiculously small to my mind; I run at 1400x1050).
800x600 will, I believe, be unsupported in Windows Vista, with 1024x768
being the minimum resolution.

Ed,

What about the Cell/PDA phones with Windows Mobile 5? Any idea on their
screen settings?

Windows Mobile typically runs at 480 x 640.

Whatever happened to making pages to the lowest common denominator so
that everyone would have a pleasant visit?

People lost their minds and started wanting to surf the web on their
teeny-tiny cell phones.

We kind of got on to the topic of horizontal scrolling.

Just a few days ago I was sharing with my paesani gumbas an Italian
restaurant mama, daughter and I visited. I brought home a menu, scanned it
and inserted the image into an e-mail and sent it out. Due to the small
font on the menu I purposely created a large image. A day or two later I
was getting mail asking where was the restaurant located. It was on the
scanned image but required one to horizontal scroll to see it way over on
the right. Seems my e-mail newbie buddies didn't know how to horizontal
scroll.

Welcome to the world of e-mail.

ciao,

don

P.S. Rob, talking about Denicolas Restaurant, 3520 SE Powell Blvd,
Portland, OR

Ha! If you make a page targeted at 480x640 users and I come and try to
view it using my lovely 1400x1050 notebook display, I'll have anything
but a pleasant visit. The site will be a thin bar down the left-hand
side of my screen. Or if I'm really lucky, down the centre of my screen.
