If you build it to 800 pixels wide, what am I to do with the other 480
pixels in my viewport? (I am not including scroll bars and other window
effects.)

Other than the obvious reason of 'to read the rest of the page', why should
I scroll down when I have so much unused display area?

Yes, you should use %'s to fit various widths and browser window
hights, as not all people brows with the browser windoe maximized.
I hope that helps.
