I hated Dreamweaver with a passion from the start. It wrote crappy code. And no surprise that it tried everything in its power to keep you away from the code. I didn't want a WYSIWYG... I wanted to a smart text editor. The Dreamweaver we have now is a far cry from the garbage it started out as. I use it because it has a few nice features. Dreamweaver is a pretty decent "smart text editor". Language awareness and code completion are very handy things. But I never use any of the WYSIWYG and widget stuff. And I still like to use a separate FTP app for FTP rather then let my IDE do it. My favorite was Allaire's Homesite. It was purchased by Macromedia, who maintained it briefly. They were later purchased by Adobe, who attempted to fold Homesite into Dreamweaver but failed to do it right. Homesite is dead. :(
