If I have only minor edits, I've no problem firing up vi to code HTML. 
Minor edits can be anything from a couple of characters (read: typos) 
changed, to whole sections of text added (read: club meeting minutes).

If I'm doing any serious amount of HTML, I prefer the oft-overlooked, 
java-based Arachnophilia (http://www.arachnoid.com/arachnophilia).  I'm 
willing to overlook the fact that it is slightly less than zippy on my 
500MHz laptop due to the fact that the guy who wrote it seems really 
cool.  It isn't Freeware, it isn't Shareware. . . it's Careware.

Anyway, in homage to the original topic, "I've got the MAC bug..." I 
will add that I'm in the market for a PowerBook.  I want one.  My old 
PIII Celeron laptop is showing its age.  If anyone catches wind of 
someone willing to let a used G4 go at a fair price, please let me know.

thanks,
