The support for standards is high, including built in validators html tidy and xhtml or regular html.
If you use homesite you might end up liking DW a lot, as you can turn off lots of code hinting and just about revert to homesite. But retain the superior find and replace, site and other DW features...
Plus the collaborative features are handy. I like DW, I'm sure others have other preferences

I definately think it is worth it

anyone using dreamweaver?
as far as 100% valid transitional and strict xhtml sites go, can dreamweaver have its preferences etc manipulated enough to be to produce markup and css exactly the way you want? I've always used homesite religiously to handcode sites but may need to look to dreamweaver to satisfy some more complicated templating needs and sharing them across several designers (which dreamweaver looks like it can handle) - i just need to ensure dreamweaver can be whipped into line to produce squeaky clean standards based markup. (and yeah, i've read the macromedia site blurbs - but I was hoping to hear from anyone that has a lot of first hand experience with it - particularly on large scale sites & maybe sharing templates between workmates etc)
