Honestly, I would be far more interested in HomeSite for the Mac.  I know
there are a lot of Dreamweaver/GoLive users out there that swear by their
App of choice, but I've used them all and have to say that nothing compares
to HomeSite for speed of development, writing clean code and not messing
with hand-written code (for me anyway).

Right now I use a combination of BBEdit and Dreamweaver for site authoring.
It's the best combination of all available Mac Apps I've used.  Which is
kind of funny because GoLive is so close to being HomeSite yet so very far
away that I can't stand it.

Of course these are all personal preferences and your mileage may vary.

If anyone from Macromedia or Allaire could tell me if there were any plans
to port HomeSite to OSX they would certainly make my day.

<tip type="WYSIWYG Editors">
If you don't know HTML and you call yourself a web designer, so you use
Dreamweaver to "write your code for you", for God's Sake run "Clean-Up HTML"
under the "Commands" menu when you are done.  Not that this applies to many
people here but a few lukers may benefit.
