(Both monitors are highly recommended, btw.) We’ve installed a Linux machine now – the first of many – and I had to give up my 20″ Samsung 205B and plug the Windows box back into the HP LP3065. Pushing input and switching keyboards was not efficient (3 movements instead of one, along with a screenflash each time). So I decided to take the plunge and go looking for a Windows XHTML/CSS editor which would allow me to open up files from the server. I’d had a quick run-in with HTML-Kit a couple of nights ago which I found via somed SEO research I was doing (htmlkit are doing some serious link selling) but had not been happy at all with the tool. Nothing like being at home on BBedit (which while arguably drab, is not clumsy). The website was particularly stressful with it’s ugly and unreadable four column layout. Would you want to trust your html and CSS editor to people who can’t build a readable web page? Me neither. While version 292 is free, all future versions and advanced functionality are relatively expensive, with just part of the pro package costing $65. I don’t know if the guys at htmlkit have a drug habit they are supporting with their newfound commercial activities and advertising but something is seriously amiss. So I decided to look more seriously this time.
