Unfortunately, these layouts are still dumb. It means that if you have a narrow window, the text becomes tiny and difficult to read. So if I want to have the window on half my screen, so I can have 2 windows at the same time, this layout gets all tiny... not very useful.

I think you should tag it interesting and useless. :)

Does this work for anybody else using IE (on startup I mean)?

I also think some of this could be done with CSS.

Why would I want to have the window on half my screen? Just use browser tabs to switch between browser windows or get a bigger moniter!

It is meant to resolve the *basic* issue of different resolutions, so if you choose to use only half the width of your moniter per window, that's far too specific for most site Designers.
