Cameron Moll has a great one that I have stuck to using a 960 grid.

Also a great Mac utility is Xscope, which shows you what your work
looks like in almost all browsers including iPhone Safari.

Check the Screens function, which overlays a transparent frame over
your design. It shows you the available real estate you have with
each browser under Mac and Windows.

"That's the way it always has been done." 

I have found it to be the case that many best practice fallbacks like
this come from the early days of web/app design. Because it was a new
experience for everyone, a lot was dumbed down. I would not jump to
the conclusion that designers are the ones making this choice. I
still rail against this in work with those who think the general
public is too dumb to know how to use a computer. If a child can
figure out how to turn a page in a book without clearly written
instructions, why do we continue this?
