Yeap, but just remember some people may have browser widths starting at
(1680 x 1024)  wide screen LCDs are out there and it use.  Viewing the
fully fluid elastic sites at this resolution can be a bit frightening.

Yes but those screens are WXGA which have around 150 pixels per inch. Which is means your fixed width sites appear half the size they would on regular monitor. Fully fluid sites are regular size but all text and image appear half the size they would on regular monitor, which in my opinion is worse, long lines of small text is extremely difficult to read.

My suggestion, is let people choose their browser window width and the website then scales to fit their window. (Elastic design + _javascript_ enhancement)

Even if you do get complaints from friends who have to read your site from the other side of the room because they surf the web with a browser maximized on a 23" screen.
