Please No. Designing a web page with a proprietary width height is, IMO, fundamentally against the purpose of using HTML. Don't you hate it when you have to scroll _left to right_ on some page that is built around a certain width. UGGGH!! HTML is used to provide MAXIMUM cross platfrom compatiblity. I personnally like the LYNX test. FreeBSD does quite well with lynx. Anyone who likes a proprietary page "hearkens back to the bad old days of the internet when people were unable to share information." Loosely quoted from Tim Berners Lee.
