Do you have any idea how many cards it took to put a date on the screen?

My girlfriend and I are working on a webpage together. She's using DW and doing a pretty good job although sometimes I have to come in and tweak the code a bit to get the exact look we're going for and I'm using Notepad. I may try my hand at PHP and mySQL if I feel brave enough as I've never tried it before.

I took a programmers course in college in 1964. We had to punch the program into the cards that were 2 1/2 x 5 and the run them through a sorting machine several times. Then feed them into an IBM 1401 ( think that was the number. It covered one wall in a nice sized room. Cables ran everywhere. It was an awesome feeling when your little "do nothing" first progarm actually did what it was supposed to. Mostly nothing.

Okay so i did the google thing for MS frontpage, and looked at staples site.
What is the difference between the 200.00 with box and manual and the 90-100.00 retail cd with key, no box or manual?
Being a guy, how important is the manual?
Come on you know we don't need no stinkin manuals. Right? Wrong?
Don't really know why I want to do this, just trying to learn something new, that code stuff sounds interesting, but not sure I am that dedicated just yet.
thanks for the info.
