Although with a title like that, this post could be about the joys of cross-browser compatibility testing of a CSS website, it's not: it's a request for advice about a freeware WYSIWYG HTML editor for Windows.
In short: does anyone know of one that's suitable for me to recommend to intelligent but beginning web authors? I can't do much (or any) testing of Windows apps myself, so that's why I ask for your help. Please let me know any of your faves (or un-faves) in comments here.

I have Namo which is a pretty good editor for $89 (You can find it on E-bay for $50 or less). It comes with a graphics package that can split graphics up so they fit into table cells (if you're into that) and has built in FTP, etc.
I have version 5 which has limited scripting and style sheet support (it's there, just a bit clumsy) but V6 is supposedly a lot better.
If you just want a great editor for HTML, etc Edit Plus is the ticket! (We don't need no stinkin' WYSIWYG)
