I came across an interesting statistic at OneStat.com. It says that 1024 x 768 has finially taken over as the most common minitor resolution. It’s about time! As a developer of intertactive media, this is a long awaited transition. I’m tired of having to squeeze a client’s info into 800 x 600. Although I’m not sure if I can make the switch just yet. As you can see, there are still a relatively significant number of users at 800 x 600, but it won’t be long now.
Most Common Monitor Resolutions:
| 1. | 1024 x 768 | 54.02% |
| 2. | 800 x 600 | 24.66% |
| 3. | 1280 x 1024 | 14.1% |
| 4. | 1152 x 864 | 4% |
| 5. | 1600 x 1200 | 0.8% |
| 6. | 640 x 480 | 0.6% |
| 7. | 1152 x 870 | 0.1% |
I’m using 1440×900 resolution and monitor size of 20” wide screen.
