CSS Sculptor

I am in the process of upgrading from CS2 to CS3. I noticed that DW-CS3 offers many enhancements in the area of CSS. I am also aware of WebAssist CSS Sculptor by Eric Meyer. What I am wondering is if I upgrade to DW-CS3 do I need CSS Sculptor? Does Sculptor offer that much more than DW's new enhancements or can a novice do just fine with DW?
Any response will be appreciated.
Thanks

I wouldnt change Dreamweaver for anything in the world. I like the default css styles, it helps me save a lot of time!

I've been using DW for quite a while now, but I have to be honest that I've never really learned CSS..but I'd like to. Is DW the best program for implementing and learning how to build CSS based sites, or is there a better way. I'm always so impressed with many of the great web 2.0 templates you see out there, I'd like to be able to create some.

As above, You would be well-served to spend some time increasing your fundamental CSS skills rather than depending on CS3's built-in CSS enhancements, John

"Sculptor allows you many more options than the built-in layouts - which are very well crafted, by the way. The core functionality of the layouts can be replicated in the very first step of Sculptor: choosing a design. From there, you can modify your layout in Sculptor in a great many ways. You can alter the width of the page, change it from fixed pixels to variable percentages, center it or justify it left or right " It sounds great!. What do you think?

I am looking at picking up an older G4 tower that has a legitimate copy of CS2 installed on it. The seller (its on an online classifieds place) said that it is not a ripped copy of CS2 and that he will include the serials for the software but that he will not include the original CDs. I was wondering, if I have the original serial numbers for CS2, can I buy CS3 and upgrade the CS2 to CS3 and then, if I so desired, uninstall it from the G4 and install it on my MacBook as CS3. Do I need the original CS2 CDs to install it on another computer before I can upgrade it to CS3?

It will work fine, but as we know that new version always has some new functions/options so might be it could take sometime to understand this...

CSS skills rather than depending on CS3's built-in CSS enhancements or third-party tools, which are best used as rapid deployment methods to do tasks.

I also agree with increasing your fundamental CSS skills. It will help you in the long run with CSS development. I do everything by hand with CSS, as I find more power in this way, but from working with Clients who were updating their sites themselves, they found the Dreamweaver method of selecting classes and working with CSS to be pretty intuitive. So I think Dreamweavers own CSS function is pretty good.
