But then we end up with screens where there are too many levels of navigation (deep or 
wide) and require more navigation to accomplish simple tasks.  

Good GUI Design does not necessarily equate to "fit in 800x600"  It equates to 
"Present 
cohesive functions in a consistent fashion".  Sometimes the problem domain will drive 
"good" 
designs such that they require more than 800x600.  Sometimes they won't.
