I'll freely admit that I'm doing this review for somewhat impure reasons. You see, I started my second flirtation with Adobe GoLive only because my usual visual page editor (you know, the one named after that cheeseball Gary Wright song) got the equivalent of some really bad plastic surgery that left it laughably buggy and ultimately unusable.
