I recently tried Kompozer on Windows, and this program is ass. Even for a price tag of free, it still isn't worth it. The very fact that many of the 'Linux alternatives to Windows' lists have this as an alternative to Dreamweaver is the very reason why I don't take any of these lists seriously.

Then again, I guess REAL html developers use vi ;)
