I've been able to write HTML since I took a HNC in computer networking c.2002/3, to be honest I always use Dreamweaver and only ever edit with notepad when I can't get the application to do *exactly* what I want. From personal experience I'd say 90% of all the code writers I know use some form of application other than notepad, it's just easier and quicker that way.
I've also been writing HTML code for many years (I work as a web developer at the moment).
I think Dreamweaver is one of the best code editors out there. You can drop into code view if you're unhappy with the design/layout view. But it's an expensive app and probably overkill for most people. I mostly use Notepad++ which is more of a general purpose editor. It's one of the 3 "must-have" apps that keep me using Windows (via Virtualbox).
FWIW the one web tool I cannot work without is Firebug, which is a great inspection/debugging extension for Firefox. It lets you play with the HTML, CSS and Javascript within the browser. I also use EditCSS quite a bit but that has problems with background images.
