I dont know where you are getting 240ppi number from but
on a typical 19" monitor even a 1200 pixel wide image
is only about 100ppi which is NOT overkill, I can easily
see the improvement over 800 or even 1024 pixels wide.

Personally I always use 1024x768 as my assumed baseline resolution for
preparing web images, even though my system runs at 1280x1024. If I
think a particular shot suffers because of this, then I add a link to a
higher resolution file.

And BTW John, 240 ppi for a web image is massive overkill, that's print
resolution. 72 is more than enough & it also results in smaller files
which is a bonus for those on slower connections.
