A great primer for anyone thinking of investing in a CMS by Tony Byrne at CMS Watch:
Sex, lies and CMS vendors. He lists the top 10 fibs told by vendors.

"Our interface will sell itself" (This is the sex part)CMS salespeople often overestimate the usability of their product interfaces. You too might get excited by snazzy contribution wizards and sexy Word conversion screens -- only to have your editors exclaim, "what the hell is that?" What's easy for one contributor can be difficult for the next. Experienced CMS salespeople explain how easily their interfaces can be modified, because typically their customers have to do just that.
Oh yes.
