It's not /that/ evil, but this would be better:

<div id="min-width"></div>

#min-width {width:780px;}

Unfortunately I've found this doesn't always work in the way it should to
hold CSS flexible layouts to a min-width in IE.  What happens is, yes,
you'll get the horizontal scroll at 780px, but the percentage-width
elements will still scale down to try to fit in the /viewport/.

You may have better luck putting this element /inside/ a container and
floating/positioning your columns inside that rather than BODY.
