Its a good layout, I suggest a border around it because in 1024x768 the header lookes nice and contained, but it feels like the content could float off at any time. Some good visual seperation is always good.
Also, your layout has a very popular structure; two column with header and footer. This is a classic css style layout. I suggest that you move from tables to divs. Here's why:
1. Tables were never meant to be used in layouts. When they were first created they were only for tabular data, such as scientific tables. In fact, those who created tables accused though who used them for layout of mis-useing code. In fact, it is mis-use of their purpose, and w3c tends to not like it.
2. Tables are extremely bulky, and take a long time to download. Plus, since users have more to download, it makes your bandwidth costs much higher.
3. If you use CSS and xhtml, your website is on its way to working with newer and newer browsers, because they will no longer be produced with html because w3c has discontinued its production, but they will be made with xhtml. Xhtml is very similer to html.
4. If you use CSS, you can get you're website to work in all browsers, not just firefox. I suggest taking off the disclaimer that this site only works in blah blah blah, because it works fine in netscape and 1024x768, besides, its kinda cheap.
5. How CSS works is, you have your .html file with all of the content, and each section (such as the header section) is wrapped with <div id="blah">blah</div> then in your header you use <link> to call an external .css file. This file tells the divs what to do; what color, border, width, hight, margin, padding, how it displays, where on the page it should be, etc etc. The .css file only has to download once and then it is stored in browser cache...significantly reducing bandwidth and download time.
6. If you want to change the look of your website, all you have to do is edit the one css file and every page has a new look!!
