I'd say it would not be good. Fixed-width fonts are desirable when
it's for code (of any language). The example www.knime.org site uses
proportional fonts for R code which makes it hard to read IMHO. I
really dislike that.
What's wrong with a spartan look? Google has flourished with a
no-unnecessaries approach to home page clutter.
