I have already helped two friends move to WordPress in the past week for easier management of their websites so check it out and ask for help/tips/recommendations. While you are at it, check out what WordPress has done for them:

Dylan Tucker’s Tuckered Out Films | Joyce Davis’ personal site

Also, check out the new website for North Country Grown Co-op which was also built on WordPress as a CMS (content management system). It does not use the blogging feature for which WordPress was originally built but WordPress allows for easy management of the site and its content.
