Well, you have my agreement

Seems that the whole point of digital media is that the device at the other end 
is smart enough to work out how to display what it's sent. When we get hung up 
on 640x480 or 800x600 we just get stuck in the old analogue TV debates.

Is it the job of any organisation to mandate the required screen width for 
viewing? Like most things on the web, how content is consumed should be under 
the control of the user (and yes, i guess that does mean streaming standards 
etc before that debate resurfaces :-) ).

Having said that I guess there were valid reasons for choosing not go go with a 
css liquid layout...



as ever, the views expressed are my own etc

That's when you need a nice fluid design!

Now if only most of the worlds web designers agreed with me :)
