Seconded. Although the following stats are site-specific and, therefore, should only be taken as a
very rough guide, they represent a wide audience so should be representative of the general web
populous:

1024 x  768  37%
1280 x  800  25%
1280 x 1024  14%
1440 x  900   6%
 800 x  600   3%

So a whopping 4 out of 10 users will have to scroll your design horizontally to use it.

I've noticed an increasing number of websites whose designs do not fit into a 1024 x 768 resolution.
For certain audiences, this is probably acceptable, although no less frustrating for me personally.
For a general purpose site, however, 960-ish should accommodate at least 90% of your visitors.
