Hi,
By no means I'm an expert, just to share my 2 cents,
Try start from here and click each image for more details:
http://www.microsoft.com/office/frontpage/prodinfo/futureoffp.mspx
Based on my very limited knowledge:
(1) If it's for your CIO, try begin with high-level before getting into
details - get the big picture first
(2) It's widely known that SharePoint is for Intranet and EW is for
Internet. And you can treat one as a private portal for employees and
suppliers/vendors and the other one as for the general public including
customers. Of course, many companies combine the two into one main entrance
but others choose to have two separate entrances (a.ka. public and private
entrance).
Since the visitors are different, so the underlying usage will also be
different.
For employees and vendors, it will be related to some kind of collaborations
(for product design, production coordination, delivery schedule, and so on)
and/or exchange "internal" documents (e.g. blueprints, schedules, proposals,
presentations, etc.) through the platform. Also many other "internal"
operation, such as schedule meeting, also might be possible through the
platform.
For general public, it's widely known for missions like commerce
transactions, customer service, collecting customer/visitor feedback, and/or
delivering public information, so on.
With that in mind, it should be easier for you to compare the two products
against its intended audiences and purposes through their platform,
technologies, document formats, and so on.
Please bear in mind that above are based on my very limited knowledge.
Hope experts will give you more detailed information.
Good luck! :)

Your query for "Sharepoint" did not return results.
Check your spelling.
Enter a term or phrase that's less specific.
Try different phrasing.
Try fewer words.
The past threads may be using a different name for Sharepoint. So I am
going
to install both programs and do a side-by-side. I need to prepare a
detailed
report for my CIO for our Enterprise direction to replace FrontPage. I was
just looking for a head start.

Look at some of the past threads in this newsgroup; this subject has been
discussed before.
A lot of people are wondering the same thing as you, and Microsoft hasn't
done a great job differentiating the two products.

What can Expression Web Designer do that Sharepoint Designer cannot. I
am
trying to choose one or the other. Most information I can find on the
difference is too high level. So if anyone has knowledge, can they pass
it on
to me.
Thanks.
