look nothing can beat a hand coded website. nothing ever will. webs is a CMS. not my favorite one (clearly) but they all do pretty much the same. its just how clean the code is and how much it can do.
yes hand coded beats all, but webs beats my hand coding capabilities(off by heart and with out a blueprint of what the person wants the site to look like) but with my book, ipod, sheets of paper, and my computer(alot of things) i can make an alright one probably better than webs
