I forgot to add Yahoo, Sun Microsystems and IBM.

The whole point is these are high-traffic'ed sites.  If they are in the 
majority, then what they do by default is a "convention".  You might 
want to argue against them but I'm not quite sure how successful you'll be.

But going one way or the other is a design decision.  It's based on 
where you think the vast majority of your users are.  If you think the 
vast majority of your users have monitors set at 1600x1200 and love 
resizing their windows to get the text right, then you'll design your 
site with them in mind.
