Mine was 1024x768 and have upgraded to 1440x900.
All these days, I made sure that the width of my code line does not exceeds 90 characters, so that it never wraps for a viewer having a minimum resoultion of 1024x768. I wish to maintain it .. but also like to have an idea of what others think.

This example code will not wrap in screen width of 1024 pixels ( and above ) : How to convert Image data (JPEG/PNG/GIF) to hBITMAP ?

My point is : If more people are having screen width of 1024 then, it will be better to use continuation section to fit the code to be 90 character wide.

1024...
I like it when the code does NOT wrap. I also wish people would not post code that will not wrap, too. I very highly dislike it when the code / page have to be scrolled horizontally.

I think DPI is also a factor of text width. The default word wrap value is at 75 characters (for email, base64/85 etc.) so I would stick with that if avoiding overflow is very important.

I'm running 1600x1200 at main monitor (at home and at work) and I'm using 96 DPI. (It's planned to add an sidemonitor with 1920x1200).
So my maximum line length in PSPad is at 170 at the moment (Without the "Project"-Sidebar it would be more than 190) :)

I do like it if code wraps on the screen, but if it doesn't I'll do it myself. So there is no need to obey any character-count..

1600x1200 connected to a 1280x800 laptop. Waiting for the day when I get a new computer and can get 2 1600x1200s side-by-side.

1064x1280, 106dpi, portrait-mode at home (really useful for longer texts and code), landscape at work. Max line lenght in Notepad++ is 93.

Code:
What is your screen resolution ?

800x                 0%  [ 0 ]
1024x               31%  [ 7 ]
1280x               31%  [ 7 ]
1440x                9%  [ 2 ]
More than that      27%  [ 6 ]
 
Total Votes : 22


So, on average one third visitors have 1024 !
Should we all fit our line width to be less than 90 characters ?
