Actually discussion about pricing is not welcome on this list.
Everything else is pretty much up to the list guide (?!)

I also use Frontpage just to speed up the creation of some sites. But I use
Homesite if I want to do a really professional work. Frontpage is a toy.
And a toy with a rather strange life of it's own. I was forced to use
index.html instead of index.htm in one of the servers I mantain web pages
on. I normally use HTML but Frontpages defaults to HTM, to be honest I could
not care less what extension I use but it really annoyed me that my
Frontpage will not recognize my 'index.html' page as the "Homepage" for
navigation bars. Looks to me like Micro$oft wants to force the HTM extension
(?!)
I do admire Bill Gates for his marketing whits but I do also believe that he
is the living proof that it is possible to sell garbage (Yes I am generally
speaking od M$ products). Unfortunately do I have to use many Micro$oft
products for my work.
