I think with web sites the designer has to be flexible with the design.
The true test of a web site is (in the folloeing order of importance) if it
will
1) convey all necessary information
2) Work on every system and
jointly
3) Look good and load quickly

If you design a website with flexibility then it doesn't matter what system
it's viewed on, it will always work and always look good.

Well, that's what I reckon anyway.
Simplicity is the key.
