In general, people who really enjoy using computers and professionals (graphic designers, etc.) use higher resolutions. Another way to answer this whole question is to try to make your site accessible to all. Generally, the more you build flexibility into your design, the more easily it will accommodate a variety of users and their hardware and software, even though it may not look identical to all. If you use valid structural code, combined with style sheets for appearance, your site should be accessible to most visitors.
