which has a CMS My client prefers me to change coursesmart into a CMS and I’m taking a look at Drupal, Mambo, Joomla, and various CMS (including your free open source ones).

But there are actually major issues with all the whole Joomla CMS (e. g. SEO problems, terrible HTML, database inefficiency of which makes large websites slow as molasses) which have been making me glimpse towards Drupal + this Drupal e-Commerce Module besides Joomla + VirtueMart. It appears as though a lot more work to secure a base install inside Drupal, but as soon as you get a configuration you want, people say Drupal will be the best OS CMS accessible.
