They can't read the small type comfortably. Nor can they read page after page of reversed type on the ludicrous web sites who use such crap. A basic principle of typography is to mack your printing easily legible. Artsy-Craftsy sucks. Don't try to get fancy and use hard to read type faces. Good serif and sans serif type faces abound. Pick a good one. Consider that all internet users are not clear eyed 20 year olds and it will become apparent why the use 800×600 resolution. They can’t read the small type comfortably.
