I definitely do not remember 800x600 as spacious and comfy. The best I could call it is "slightly better than 640x480". I had to get to 1024x768 before I actually felt like the screen was no longer cramped.
And I had to get to 2560x1440 before I felt like I really had enough room for more than one window at a usable size and placement at the same time. (Not really surprising, as it's finally big enough to put 1280x720 windows next to each other.)
