About 10% of users who access my main UK-based site still have monitor resolution set below 1024x768 pixels. But I don't have detailed stats for my Chinese language site hosted in China. This site currently has a layout suitable for viewing down to 800x600, but I would like to redesign with a wider page size more suitable for 1024x768 or above. Are there any users in China or Hong Kong with legacy equipment still browsing below 1024x768? [ edited by : HarryM at 10:10 am (utc) on Aug. 6, 2007] I am not sure about China and Hong Kong but my sites in Japan get less than 2% of visitors with sub 1024 resolutions. Thanks jeffposaka,
