It all depends on YOUR particular audience... our site has way more users at 1600x1200 than 640x480....
...and someone on a 1600x1200 or larger screen is usually NOT running the browser full-screen... they've got a few browser windows over here... maybe some 3D modelling going on over there, a few shell windows... etc... don't assume you have their whole screen to play with...

if you have the chance with your client, maybe the design should determine the scr size. this would be nice.

If you have 3 friends that still set their monitors at 800x600, then you need to get some new and improved friends.

I agree with ribit about asuming browser size based on resolution. I have my resolution set to 1280x1024 but all my browsers are all roughly 1024x768, or whatever size I'm happy with at the moment. I never have them maximized.
My mother stops by my apartment to use my computer and she hates how small everything is so I had to set up another acount for her, then switch to 1024x738 when she logs in, then back again when she logs out. Pain in the ass, I tells ya.

The majority of the computer users have no idea how to change the resolution, thanks to the monitor factorys it stays at default 800*600, nobody cares about resolution besides designers

I use 1024 on a 19 inch monitor. I find that higher resolutions slow down my applications for no reason.
