Uh Oh. Can Adobe's Dreamweaver stand up to Microsoft's Expression?

Microsoft has been receiving a lot of feedback from Frontpage over the years. Now, it seems they have moved forward with their newest release called Expression.

I haven't seen Expression or its capabilities, but I can imagine since Dreamweaver is the cream of the crop in web development, Microsoft needed to create a product worthy of taking Dreamweaver down.

Personally, I think Adobe is waiting to see what Microsoft has up its sleeve with the release of Expression. When they release Expression, the next version of Dreamweaver will be released.

My concern will be the integration of AJAX into each environment since AJAX is becoming a staple in developer teams. We've already seen a taste of what's to come with the AJAX framework from Adobe called Spry. Now, I want to see how they'll integrate that into Dreamweaver.

Informit.com has posted an article about whether Microsoft Expression Web Designer can touch Dreamweaver or not.
