forget frontpage, what about a dreamweaver alternative? i do respect the
hand coding people out there, i too started coding with VI, but there is
no way im going to design complex image maps or anything else with lengthy
code by hand any more, too much chance for error and it takes way too long
to do it.  i wish wine would pick up the pace and get compatible with MX
2004 and for that matter photoshop CS. but i would be happy with just a
dreamweaver alternative.  which in my search i can find nothing that comes
close to the power of dreamweaver.
ps, im not knocking frontpage, i too have used it, but every page i have
created or seen created with it just doesnt look as professional as
compaired to what you can do with dreamweaver.  most people go with front
page because dreamweaver has a much higher learning curve, but once you
master it you can do wonders.
