It lacks the macromanagement that dreamweaver has, but for html (and even php/javascript) coding, it's pretty good. I'm starting to like it. Both gimp and bluefish are included with mandrake 8.0, so you may already have them installed or they're easily installed (assuming you have m8.0 of course). For design oriented programs, I use vmware. Which allows you to run a windows session from linux. It's almost as fast as running windows natively. So I do all my illustrator/quark/etc stuff in there. I'm still crossing my fingers that the advent of Mac OSX will cause Adobe/Quark to keep going and bring their apps over to linux as well.
