that's not at all a valid comparsion - Mambo is a finished product.

you think DW is easier to learn than FP?
 
Kind of sounds like going to "express medical school" for 6 months instead
of 6 years? ;-)

Yah, my brain surgeon has a website like that.

Conspiracy theory heh...
 
Only if you believe that thinking it so makes it so.

Belief is what makes it so because belief dictates the way you think. Belief
is handled by the subconscious mind, was formed long ago and is very
resistant to change. Thinking is of the conscious mind and changes with the
wind.

So if you believe that the bridge designer designed bridge properly it will not rust and will stand forever? That his thinking had nothing to do with creating a solid structure, that he just believed it and it was so? That the welders believed a solid weld and it was?

You so easily separate belief from thought. A thinking man's beliefs are
based on thought, not the subconscious.

Not true, the mambo comes with a "template" so it's pre designed.
go to places like www.pixelmill.com, www.classythemes.com,
www.monstertemplates.com, etc.

look at professionally designed FrontPage templates. there's a mind-blowing
amount of time and good graphics work that's gone into them. with one of
those high quality templates and just a cursory knowledge of FrontPage you
could have an absolutely killer professional site in about 15 minutes.

ugh, coming from an MVP that statement is inexcusable. There's more to
building useful web documents than throwing a bundle of templates over
the fence.
 
Try designing a single page website from the ground up with Mambo. I am
guessing that no matter how good Mambo is or is not, you will end up
spending more than one hour.

Why would one want to build a site from the ground up? In case someday I'm
caught in the desert with nothing but Notepad?

Because you have complete control over all elements of the site.

One good reason is to have a site that is unique.

But I wouldn't use notepad, I would use FP.

well, sure there's more to it than that; such as accessibility and whatnot,
but this thread started as what "looked" better and degenerated into an
apples to oranges conversation about FrontPage vs. a pre-templated web
application.

what I'm saying is: if you want something to "look professional" and you
also want it done quickly you just can't beat a high quality template.
