1280 x 1024 (the most it can go) on a 19 inch flatscreen.

You haven't got an option for no idea and care even less.

If you do increase the setting it may make the text a bit too small to read...

yes thats a good point but most modern LCD screens must be used at their 'native' resolution setting or you will not only lose definition your text will degrade especially at the edges. My Samsung Syncmaster 2023NW is a case in point.

After 48 hours of faffing around with settings and downloading various clear fonts etc I was about to send the monitor back when i found a note somewhere that the monitor had to be used in 1680x1050 bingo instant solution

Your monitor is not strictly speaking a PC monitor but a TV monitor with PC imput so a little outside the scope of this poll really

The whole point of this exercise is to demonstrate to web designers that it is no longer necessary to construct web pages at 800x600n because nobody uses that resolution anymore.

If this web page was made to fill our screens instead of just half fill them your text and mine would be twice the size wouldn't it !?....

if you would like to re-write that in English as a complete sentence we might be able to respond to your cryptic comment Dave.
Alternatively just b*&^%$ off and waste someone elses time

I'm interested to see what resolution your monitors are set at. I want to debunk the myth that net users are still using 800x600

Something like 8% of internet users still are. Main culprits are probably schools, mine had awfully low screen resolutions....and the third world/poorer countries possibly are too.

yes but third world countries are not members and users of CW forums are they I doubt whether a single user uses 800x600 .
The C+ forums use the full page width which is 10x better imo .
