I find both Drupal and Wordpress geared more toward blog type sites.   I've
seen a few small business websites use both to create a fairly simple and
small non-blog type sites.  I'm sure I can create modules to handle things
like a product database, but the thing that I find may not work right is
being able to implement some type of backend customer and employee system.
I'm trying to avoid spending quite a bit of time wasted getting a system
implemented, then customizing it, creating certain modules, only to find out
that certain things aren't easily created.
