Actually "pixels" have a very useful meaning in HTML -- and it's nothing to do with the resolution of
your screen. The size "1pixel" == the size of a 1x1 image element without size overrides.

As screens get higher res, browsers will *need* to scale up "pixels", not just because of CSS px size
specifications, but because of images.
