But I usually set the browser to full in one of those screens. Also there are so pretty good browser stats to look at on http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp and if you navigate to the browser display (one of the link on the left hand side) you can see a list of display percentages. Then if you add that all up for January 2008 you'll find that 86% was 1024x768 or higher and only 14% with 800x600 or lower. So making your site for those with 800x600 is not actually hitting the majority of users any more. Same here, I’ve got 2 screens so there is no I can do a full screen view.

Other ones don't look right. But I get it on your full screen action. I just added a screenshot from my desktop to illustrate why I can't be part of the maximized-browser-club on my desktop PC.

I don't usually do full-screen videos because my experience is that they don't look quite right. I don't mind the smaller sized videos. I just watched a full episode of "Sanctuary" in a small video and it was cool. I usually run my browser full-screen, which on my laptop is 1280×800.
