Dreamweaver is far, far more powerful than Contribute from a web
designer/developer standpoint. That isn't to say you can't build a web
site completely from scratch using Contribute, but they're really two
different animals so it's a bit of an apples-to-oranges comparison.

In many cases (I'd go so far as to say most cases from my experience)
both Dreamweaver and Contribute are involved with creating a
Contribute-managed site. The designer/developer will create the site
initially in Dreamweaver, while the content owner will use Contribute to
manage the content on the site. The advantage of using Dreamweaver to
build the site is that you can create Dreamweaver templates and control
specifically what portions of each page can be edited using Contribute.
This gives a lot more power and control than using Contribute alone.

Hope that helps clarify,
Matt
