According to my calculator, 800*600*2 = 960 000, so that's about as
good as it gets.  If you're happy with 8 bit color then 1154x968 is
just within reach, though.

Why are Fire Engines Red?
  They have four wheels and eight men; four plus eight is twelve.
    Twelve inches make a ruler; a ruler is Queen Elizabeth.
  Queen Elizabeth sails the seven seas; the seven seas have fish.
    The fish have fins; the Finns hate the Russians.
  The Russians are red; fire engines are always rushin'.
    So they're red.
