If I need to, I can write good HTML in Notepad. I can even design good web sites in Notepad. I just think that Dreamweaver helps me focus more on the end result and less on remembering the attribute values for the <table> tag.

I totally agree. I do nearly all my work in Dreamweaver. I just said you could do it in Notepad because CSS is nothing more than a text file. Dreamweaver makes it easier because you can create CSS and after you get it working the way you want, copy and paste it into a CSS file. Personally, anything that can make my job easier and more efficient is a good thing. Like you, I can write code in Notepad, but why ...that would be like having a snowblower in the garage, but shoveling the half-mile long driveway by hand.
