If you take a look at websites of companies that are in the same market (Sun and IBM, for instance), their pages do not do this either. I suspect the reason for this is the logical one: there are still a surprisingly large number of people browsing at 800x600. Both their sites look just fine at 1600x1200 as well. I'm more inclined to follow their model than other ``popular design'' models since these are companies who are known to spend more money than either of us will ever see in our lifetimes purely for research of their website interface.
