[QUOTE="D3v1L80Y, post: 304271, member: 2960"] The iMac maximum resolutions are as follows: 17" = 1440 x 900 20" = 1680 x 1050 24" = 1920 x 1200 The average website resolution is: 800 x 600 Why on earth woud anyone want to make their browser window take up the entire screen on their computer? Even on a 17", it is almost twice the horizontal and 50% more the vertical of the website, so you aren't getting any advantage here. Even if the site is 1024 x 768 (which is where some designers are heading) you still have tons of room left over if you "maximize" your browser window to fit your screen. It doesn't make the site any "bigger", it just fills out white space on the browser. It doesn't change or improve the page's content one iota. It simply doesn't make any rational sense to mazimize your browser window with a screen resolution that great in size. :black: [/QUOTE]
