Default Width of site - 760px vs 950px

Alright...If I get over my head, I apologize ahead of time. I might have to get back with my designer to answer some questions.

Anyways - right now my sites are predominantly 760px wide (the "meat" of the site.) It's supposed to be optimal for the older style monitors. For monitors that are 1024Xn, we can increase the size to 950px - which would give me a lot of room on the page.

What do you guys think about this?

Do a search on REW for resolution. Data is included in one of the threads showing the precentages that use the different monitor resolutions. As I recall, 95%+ used a resolution of 1024 or greater. I would use the entire 1024.
