Screen Resolutions

Just curious, what screen resolution does everyone here run?

If you're unsure, a good example is the UB homepage... go there (maximized) and if there's horizontal scrollbars, you're 800x600 (probably), and if it fits perfectly with no space on either side, you're probably 1024x768, and if you have plenty of space on each side, you're somewhere above that. This is for my reference in designing something new for UB.

I sport 1280x1024.

Thanks.

That's plenty. Just choose the highest. I'm really only concerned with people who's width is under 1024px

You're way behind if you're still at 800x600, but many laptops are still shipping at 1024x768.

1024x768, I just don't feel like changing it, I did at one point, but had to reinstall windows and never got around to changing it back.

I have a 19" monitor so i guess I could go a bit larger.
