I am using Twitter Bootstrap as Css framework and thinking why waste that space when I can effectively use it when majority of monitors now are on resolution of 1280 X n? I love the Bootstrap so much that I don't want to stop now and start again whole process of writing the css for bigger screens (or FULL SCREEN WIDTH as my boss wants).

Is it possible to alter/change hack or u name it, the css file to adjust to full screen or least 1200Px sizes rather 940px it uses now?

Well that was easy, I used all the good stuff for styling from Twitter Bootstrap but stripped the Grid System to be replaced by the Zurb Foundation Grid System here. I had nothing more to lose than gain extra time by not implementing the site again for a Mobile Browser.Thanks SO community
