I ain't laughing.... I been wondering the same thing.

Based on the responses, I would say this is a real concern.

I noted that almost every single reply gave a "different"
way to "move forward", which is exactly what this "no standard"
method I see in this whole thing.

The entire "web thing" remains a nightmare for a lot of shops.

One solution that I see mentioned several times:

"Buy a $400 pc and get some "freeware" off the web...."
This is NOT the solution most managers will seek.

I liked several responses where they learned this language or 
another language and golly, none of them worked out...

If you hear of a solid, well documented, proven solution, let me
know.

I would be VERY concerned if I ever thought I was going to go
into a shop that used some of these "great tools" and created
this "monster web site" and then all those creative folks left
and went on to the next great adventure. 

They also probably forgot to write down any of these great ideas 
they used. I can not imagine what it will be like to do routine
maintenance on one of these sites after the normal staff turnover
occurs.
