100% is nowadays not the best option why: reading a page 100% width on a large monitor is a pain for the eyes, to the point that 1,2,3 you loose interest and click away... a nice fluid design is built around a mini/maxi so it looks good from X width to X width

Quite true, but there are (sometimes) ways around it. I have yet to find a perfect solution, but often just keeping the main "reading area" down to a reasonable size works.

It has gotten harder recently with the wide range of devices that access the internet, so we are looking at changing to a semi-fluid design, where it looks good from 600 to 1300, and is at least not broken at others.
