Personally I find it overwhelming compared to EE and other cms's like cushycms. But I guess if I gave it a chance it might be a nice cms. Thanks for the information!

It's not even a full CMS, it's a blog with some CMS stuff added to it. Then you have the big boy Plone CMS and it's not even listed. Plone has the strongest security out there, and is the fastest too, If I'm not mistaken. I wonder why more folks don't know about Plone. It amazes me that folks use Wordpress in CMS comparisons.

I think a point i may have missed to express in the article is that as a Designer i find it the easiest. No need to write any actual programming to create huge complicated systems. Wordpress is not bad, but their templating is again so filled with programming it gives me a headache :) Look on the net for the syntax of expressionengine and you'll know what i talking about :) to include a header template its this {embed="/includes/header"} and to display the articles in any blog its {exp:weblog:entries weblog="nameofblog"} and then you can output any field you like (even ones you custom create in admin) like {title} and {type_of_hair}.

I could see how Wordpress could have a simpler more flexable solution. Maybe that is were EE comes in. Drupal may not be simple but is second to none for flexibility. The API, hook system and MySQL query UI "Views" is undeniably powerful. I don’t understand why you consider another CMS other than the big three; Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal.
