Don't agree. That's like saying a grave digger should stick to just using a shovel, when there is a perfectly good backhoe available to him.

Sure, he can make the hole look a WHOLE LOT better when he gets in there with the shovel, but why shouldn't he use the backhoe to do the majority of the dirt removal?

I use DW to start out, but mostly in the "code" view. I can do it in notepad just as easily, but I like some of DW's automated commands, plugins, colored code, etc.

A site designed exclusively in notepad by someone that knows what he's doing is head and shoulders above a site designed exclusively "drag and drop" in DW. However, an experienced site designer using DW vs. an experienced site designer using notepad isn't the same argument.
