I know my site is 100% width, and I cater specifically to allow me to read my posts and items on my monitor so sort the images to suit :) not many sites do 100% width well, but some do quite well, usually forums and other places with lots of text.

That computer you saw me sclepping around at GDC? 1920 x 1200 native on a 17" screen. And I have a 24" screen at home and the office to hook it up to. When you get a web site that is either: 1) Set for a width of about 1000 but pegged to the left, or 2) Set for 100% width regardless of window size It really gets annoying. I have simply just decided to actually use the "window" function in Windows and I always have my browser window at about 2/3 the width of the screen... maybe less. The first thing I do when I set up a new web site is wrap the whole thing in a table that has a width of about 950 and center the bloody thing. Yep.
