    I like simple layouts, so not bad - but:

    1. No desc & keywords meta tags
    2. G Add clors are terrible, do something with that

    I agree with Sorror on the G ad - the black background / white text doesn't work.

    In a sentence, what is your site about? Id est, why should I visit your site? Based simply on your domain, I thought I knew what the answer to this question might be, but now I don't (after looking at your site).

    Any way you can add some more colour to the site (in a subtle way)? I only ask because you've got blue guy at the top of your page, and in your favicon (bravo), but that's the only real splash of colour. Have you tried layouts with splashes of the Windows colours (R-G-B-Y)? Might be worth a try, if you haven't already. (Which isn't to say that they'll work - just that it's worth a try.)

    EDIT: One other comment - the G search doesn't say whether it's site or Web. I only see it's Web after using it. Putting it center like you have makes me think that it's site search - that this will help me navigate your site, not find something on the Web.

    Any way you can shrink that header? It takes up a large portion of the screen with lots of white space. It could be used much more efficiently.

    Not bad - although I think it could do with some color - do you get Drupal templates ?

    Functional elements
    - No contact link
    - No sitemap
    - No menu
    - Not enough content

    Design elements
    - Doesn't support resolutions smaller then 1024x768, fix this with right table width use.
    - Lack of colors. At least give the google ad a nice color.
    - Easy on the eye, easy to navigate. A+
