Our sites are standardised at a width of 600 pixels. Believe it or not,
I've found people within the organisation who still have their machines
set at 640x480 and 16 colours! And this in an IT organisation. I don't
think you can safely assume that people in the corporate environment are
on anything larger than 14" 640x480, although I do think that 16 colours
is a bit more rare.
