the main question is:
if people use high-resolution screens, does that automatically mean,
that they will surf with their UA window maximsed?
as a webdesigner you should concentrate your efforts on 'how can I use
the available space in the best possible way' instead of 'how can design
for the highest possible screen-resolution'. Design for your audiance
and not for what is technically possible. It is well possible, that your
audiance uses 1024x768 screens, but they will never have their UA window
maximised, so its good practice to (still) design for 800x600 resolutions.
