Well, I think it all depends on your specific application requirements, target audience, etc.
On our last major project (2 years ago) we used 800x600, but suffered some compromises in graphics quality i.e. we had to shrink some graphics down, show only portions of a screen, etc. (It's a training application, so we show screen shots from another app). Now, this year we've moved up to 1024x768, and are much more happy with the resulting look. And, with the popularity of 17" monitors, I expect we'll stay at this resolution for some time. Also, don't be stupid about screen sizes, always test your screen resolution before displaying a card that may be bigger than it. Some apps, such as the installer mentioned below, should be able to test the screen resolution, and intelligently adjust itself to fit. Just my 2 cents.
