Hi there.

What a great looking site.  I personally love the layout, very clean, easy
to follow/understand, and lots of interesting content.

Just one thing that I could find.  I find the small text around the logo
impossible to read.  If that was a bit larger, I think it would be better.
Also, the page sizes are a bit large.  Your front page including images is
111k.  You might look at optimizing or reducing some of the images, if
possible.

As for the load times, they were very quick here.  No delays at all, and all
the pages loaded nice and quick (dsl though).  I too use ASP for allot of my
sites, and find that if used correctly, it is always quick.  The only load
time issues you might have are those on dial-up.  It won't be content
generation times slowing them down though, but rather just the actual
download of the site.

HTH,
Paul Mennega
