I switched from FrontPage (sucks ass) to Dreamweaver MX (kicks ass). In FP, if you are using any of the FP elements like shared borders, you have to publish via FrontPage (not FTP) or they won't work.
You can't pull up a FrontPage site in Dreamweaver unless you download the "Import FrontPage Site Wizard" extension to convert it. I could never get the sites to work after converting, so I said fuck it and rebuilt them in Dreamweaver.
The FP extensions are a major pain in the ass. When you no longer need the extensions, you won't need to be on a Windows box, and can go Unix.
FP is good for learning because it's like fill-in-the-blank, but once you get the hang of Dreamweaver, you'll see how much it sucked.
