Is a content manager a "must have"?

[Kenny B]

We've been using a CMS for many years now, it was one of the best investments we've made and free's up loads of time. There are so many on the market now and start at only a few hundred bucks, there's no excuse to not have a tool like that to free up one's time.

CMS gives you the chance to set up your changes months in advance and lets you concentrate on other things at hand... Many moons ago I used postnuke for a backend... what a ride...
