I find I like things the opposite way - if I want to read narrow columns of text, I'll read a newspaper. My browser is not a newspaper, however, and I prefer sites that expand to fit the browser's width. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that sites that enforce this kind of narrow text (an exaggeration in order to make a point I must confess), to be entirely off-putting, and liable to lose a reader, and to have their bounce rate increased. These types of sites usually have huge columns of white space at either side of their text - space which could be put to better use displaying text, rather than trying to dictate my browsing/reading experience.
