Hee hee!

I guess I'm a die hard geek too, though I've never thought of myself that
way; but since the beginning (1997 for me), I've used only HotDog,
HomeSite, Pico and Notepad ;)  I like both HotDog and HomeSite a lot;  
the point that was made earlier about the problems with support for an
overseas product (HotDog) is a good one & for that reason I might lean
more toward HomeSite if I had my druthers.  However -- I've just gotten a
copy of Dreamweaver (like yesterday!) and, whoa! Learning curve!  Is
anyone out there using DW, and if so, any advice (besides "RTFM" which I
am doing!) for someone who's finally (at least for some things!) gone over
to the Darkish Side? (Hey, at least it's not FrontPage!)  WYSIWYG is
*really* different from raw code...
