Neither would I, but you don't have to use MacPerl as a server to put 
up the banner!  (At least I hope you don't, since my site is up there 
on the list, and I don't!)  All my Perling is done off-line; I have 
some scripts I run when I add pages, which create my photo gallery 
pages and automatically update the local navigation (including META 
tags for iCab users!).  Then the pages are uploaded to and served by 
a POAS (Plain Old Apache Server).

Plus it's how I learned Perl -- useful knowledge now that I need to 
write some CGI's (for a different server, not MacOS either).
