I notice one problem about Comic Sans, it takes up more room,
especially vertically, which adds up to quite a bit on a web
page. Trebuchet MS does not have this fault, and is also not too
stuffy, a bit informal... mmm... this might be my recommendation
instead of Comic (which is a favourite of this client I have. She
won't argue now I have an argument about space! Considering she
wants the site to be as accessible as possible)
