I loved FrontPage. You could whip up a site in no time. The code it created was a disaster, but to be fair it worked fine.
I'd often use a WUSSYWAGON editor like FrontPage to make up a design and see how it looked, then just redo it by hand (or at least MAJORLY edit it) in Notepad so it wasn't spaghetti.
I made a site for my dad's business in FrontPage (then edited in Notepad) back in the very early 00s and hosted it on the 5MB of web space provided by the dialup provider at the time. It's still there and exactly the same, though I had to move it to another provider in the late 00s when the ISP went bust. It's gonna outlive him, and possibly me.
I'm familiar with WYSIWYG but I've never heard of WUSSYWAGON.
