I've kept quiet up until now but I'm afraid I have to step in and
respectfully disagree here. If a site is hard to update, that indicates
poor design and lack of forethought rather than anything else.
XHTML, CSS and a little bit of PHP or Perl are all that is needed to
create a clean, beautiful and above all, maintainable site.
As a nice example, take a look at this site to see how minimal and
readable XHTML can be if done properly (look at the source):

Plain HTML is often mistakenly viewed as simpler and easier but that
couldn't be further from the truth. A combination of XHTML and CSS
allows you to seperate formatting from page arrangement and make
your life much easier. :)
Have a good christmas, list. :)
