The only way you could possibly do it is to have some javascript detect what
the browser's setting are, then redirect to a page for that resolution.
Of course, you'd have to know how many that is, and rewrite each page for
that resolution.
From what I've seen on stats, very very very few people use anything greater
than 1024.
So why bother?
