I too use medium. I used to have my home computer set to smaller, but there is not too much difference.
The main reason I use medium is that this is what most people use, and what most websites are designed to use. I think most people could not be bothered to change the size, so they just would leave it. There is one guy at work who uses large or largest text size, and it always makes websites look out of whack!
Whenever I design a website, I always use this size as I want to ensure that the site displays right for most people. I guess you are never going to get everyone, as there will always be someone out there with different text size, using less colours, using the horrid 640x480 resolution, using an old browser, etc. So all you can do is design a site for the majority of people.
