Go to image>size and bump up the resolution. The problem isnt that you want less than a pixel, which is impossible. Its that you want the drawing area to have more pixels total so that your lines look thinner.
good luck.

Why is it when I create a new document in Illustrator if choose points or pixels at 800x600 and later change the document setup to inches are the sizes the same in both instances???
If I’m wrong could somebody explain that to me??? **
Because the amount of pixels (800x600) hasn’t increased or decreased.
The dpi setting (dots per inch) is just used for printing, it has nothing to do with how an image will look on a monitor.
If you have an image of 800x600 PIXELS and set it’s resolution to 1000 dpi or whatever, and have another image also at 800x600 pixels, set it’s dpi at 10, the two images will be EXACTLY the same size on your monitor, since they both contain the same amount of pixels. Turn off Resample image from the Image Size dialog box in PS before changing the dpi setting.
You have only changed the printing resolution, so the 1000 dpi image, when printed, will come out tiny.
look guys i think we all agreed - and now if you’ve got solutions to help him do technical drawings like i did then try to help - we all agree about the pixel size thingy - move on…
