Who knows what it'll be in the future? That's hardly an argument against the
present. You're basically saying, "I don't like the way things are now,
because they might change later!" You're free, now, not to install the
"excess technology" and just install Homesite+.

I don't think that the people developing Homesite+ are the same people
working on Dreamweaver MX. I wouldn't be surprised if Homesite+ is still
written in Delphi.

I do think that, in the future, Homesite+ may disappear, as Dreamweaver
becomes more suitable for people currently using Homesite+. I don't think
that's a bad thing, either. To me, it makes sense for Macromedia to build
one really good editor rather than two mediocre ones.
