Well, at 1280x1024 on my desktop machine 12pt is completely unreadably small, and thats a pretty common resolution (w a 17" monitor btw). Every time I go to a site I have to go to view->zoom->150%... It gets old quickly! Now imagine what its like on my laptop, which has a 1400x1050 resolution (and you really can't change resolution on LCD displays...). I have to agree with Matt, web site designers should darn well NOT SPECIFY FONT SIZES, because then at least my personal default sizes take over and I can see the text!
