Small-screen formats are still the standard for many users. Although larger formats are making progress, even 800 x 600 pixels is too large to fit on millions of displays. For example, there are millions of older Macintosh-compatible displays currently in use, many of which display a maximum of 640 x 480 pixels.
To accommodate a broad spectrum of users, including those using small screens, design for 640 x 480 pixels. For usability with small screens, keep the average line of text to approximately 12 words.
