I think I've struck a good mid-point by using "Large Fonts" in Display Properties, coupled with ClearType font smoothing and Large Icons by WindowBlinds, plus making the font size bigger in Firefox.

I would recommend these fixes before trying to downscale content to 800x600. It seems to me that it is the literal size of objects (on the screen) that gives you guys difficulties, NOT the resolution. By changing some of these options, you will get the best of both worlds.
My advice, monetary limits aside, would be to increase my screen size. 19"-21" CRT's can be had at good prices because of LCD popularity. Also, if you are using a rounded-CRT (not a flat-glass), that WILL cause eye strain, no question.
My brother used one of those for the past 4-6 years. Drove me nuts every time I used it.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
