[WEB4LIB] resolution

[TMGB]

We base our design to be targeted for 800X600.  The reason is that we
set our patron computers at this resolution and our primary clientele
are the patrons in our database which consists mainly of the local
student population.  All of our patron PCs use a 15" monitor.  I believe
most of the labs on campus also set their PCs for 800X600.  No one has
complained about the resolution or our home page to me from on or off
campus.  We do have a PC in the library dedicated to people with visual
problems.  This PC has a 19" monitor and is set to 640X480 and includes
a scanner and Kurzweil software to "read" text, from the scanner or WEB,
to the patron.  Personally I have my resolution set to 1600X1200 on a
19" monitor and normally run programs full screen.
