Did I Miss Something?

Obviously I did... I have a strong inclination to think that I missed doing my post on the Adobe web-creation program, Dreamweaver. Personally, I must say that this program, while providing a smooth, hassle-free, streamlined process for web page creation, has taken away from the true art of constructing an HTML document. In all honesty, I feel like I am cheating while using this program... Some might say the plethora of features and options in Dreamweaver allow for an extensive, in-depth, truly unique web page to be created, but it all just confuses me. I would much rather toil for hours over notepad, wordpad, or some other simple text editing program writing the real HTML code than sit down for 20mins and cut/paste or click on buttons. To me it just seems more intimate... more true... more like you care about your webpage... I guess if all you care about is pumping out webpages to make money, Dreamweaver is a a good $300+ investment, scratch that... I just looked it up on the Adobe store... this program is over $1,700... can anyone say RIP OFF!? Truthfully, anything you can do in Dreamweaver is achievable through a simple text editing program... don't fall for the hype, and don't get caught pirating it because it's "too expensive" or you'll be wishing you didn't, because the price for piracy is far more than the raping of your wallet practiced by Adobe. It's not worth it, notepad is free, and so is the information on how to code HTML, GOOGLE IT!
