Julie - that's a good tip in e-bay I never thought of that. If you purchase on ebay can you take over the serial codes, etc. and have no problems upgrading?

Stefen - I started using DW because all my web instructors recommended it.  Now I am up to DWMX and of course have added FWMX (Fireworks) as a companion art and web program.

Its a dynomite combo because you lay the foundation in PS7(or any graphics program including Fireworks) and move into Fireworks mx, FWmx changes it to png files.  Now you can make disjointed rollovers, rollover menus, animation, almost any thing you want to do is possible. 

You next slice and save in either jpg or gif and FWMX writes the html necessary to insert all into Dreamweaver MX.  Later its easy to correct errors and graphics because of round trip.  Also you can adjust the source code DWMX writes if you want to make some changes.  They explain their code to you.  good support. if you intent to design websites, I recommend this as a timesaving program.  You can actually make a complicated web site in very short time.  And additional js you need can be added to DW source code. Easy. 

Besure to try it before you make a decision
