 Most stuff 90% of sites do can be done in Zope and ZServer is great for
 that. To serve from ZServer I think files have to be in Zope (but I might be
 wrong on that)...

Well, files could also be in an ordinary structure and referred to 
using the External FileSystem product, which creates a link in the Zope
Object Database to a folder on your machine.  I use this for legacy 
compatibility - to access an old folder of images that I can't (yet) 
move over to Zope only.

A site might be more than just Zope, it could be a whole of bunch of servers
applications etc. For example an e-commerce section written in say Perl, or
streaming audio from some other server or some fancy.

As ever it depends...

 Tremendous reply!!  Just what I needed.  I'm curious about one thing tho.
 If you don't need a regular web server (for serving files outside of
Zope),
 stick with the built-in ZServer. 
 Does this mean that I have to have all my files in the zope folder?
 Wouldn't I want to do that anyway?  Can you elaborate?
 I'd like to stick with the Zserver if I can but I don't want to run into
any
 road blocks too soon down the road.
