May to today on our web site*, 7.4% with 800x600 resolution. Of those, a fair chunk bought something. We won't be turning any of those people away by making our site only work in >800x600. And don't forget all those Asus Eee PCs out there. Not to forget the iPhones! * 4.4 million visits, 650,000 unique visitors, a significant proportion are people who don't know how to change their browser home page. Pretty much all Australian.
