Amaya's really good... it's got some tricks up its sleeve
that no one else has considered yet.

Check out Screem as well. And... try a scan of freshmeat.net.

That depends on whether you hand write your code or let a
wysiwyg editor approximate it for you.

Most pros will tell you that the only proper code is hand
written.

Dreamweaver does do a nice job when it comes to working
up sketches. Then you have to go back and put things together
correctly.

If you want the site managment stuff as well as preprocessors
that will properly generate code for you... linux has just as
good if not better. It's just not all in one package. Which...
gives you the option to build your own package from your
own choice of components.

Take a look at linux pages... start at freshmeat and wander
around a little... then, do the same through a few bloated,
layered, overly graphic, gimmick enhanced, wysiwyg
dreamweaver sites. 

You'll no longer have the opinion you seem to have now.
