I think the ones you chose on the poll are all too low. Most people probably have atleast the 14 or 1600s, or 1920.

Scroll down about half way and youll see stats for Display resolution. Approximately 75% of all internet users run a screen resolution of 1024x768 or lower.
I realize that. I was pointing out that ALFA might not represent "all internet users" for a number of reasons. Ill leave it up to you to ponder what those reasons might be.

Whats to ponder?

If this is for webpage design decisions, what the wider internet uses is far more relevant than what a couple of dozen of existing members use. No point making pages to the most common resolution used by existing ALFA members if its going to look fucked to a majority of visitors that come here.

Well, any good web-layout looks good at both 1024*768 as well as 1920*1200 etc. Scalable interfaces 4tW!
