General Questions about Zen Cart

[jpn]

After evaluating Actinic V.8 I cannot say I was too impressed and came across. Zen Cart.

I have a few YES / No Questions that I would appreciate an answer before I look further into the product.

Has Zen Cart the following features

1. Mulitiple Shiiping Area / Zones
2. Compatible with Paypal
3. Can I create my own templates (for displaying products only)
4. I am a web developer and would prefer to create my own templates rather than pre-defined 'standard' templates that I assume are offered by Zen Cart.
5. I read a review on Zen Cart and it stated that it requires its users to have a merchant account; is this true. Would it still be required if only PayPal was used for transactions?

Thanks in advance,


John
