Well heres what i always use to create a site...

1. Who will be viewing your page.
Business
People at home
2.What is the track record of viewing sizes?
3.How much room do you need for the page.

The most important one is the track record, If you have a tracking tool, it should give you the OS Browser used and Resolution. See what most of the visitors are using and conform it to that.

But remember if you go for 800x600 your in good shape because most people arent under that. If you go larger you might have the issue of scroll bars for people with lower resolution.
