I must say that I'm in agreement on that! Yes we need to cater for viewing on 
lower resolution devices, such as the range of smartphone and pads being used 
nowadays (and serving an alternative theme might help there), but leaving 50% of 
the screen blank on the current range of desktop machines is a right pain. It 
took me a while to get http://medw.co.uk working reasonably well and it still 
needs a bit more fine tuning, but I think it scales quite well from 1024 to 1920 
and on most browsers it will handle 800 even ...
