Imagine 1200px on a 1024×768 screen resolution (many laptops use it). :)

1024×768 is like IE 6 -8, A lot of people still use it and you need to develop your websites to be accessible to as many people as possible.

You also have to take into consideration mobile browsers, tablets, webTV etc…

Widescreen websites, CSS3 , HTML5 or any cutting-edge technology should be used sparingly until it becomes the standard.

Netbooks, more like. I use a 1000 pixel grid just as Parallelus does.
