deontology : using CMS with clients

Hello,
here are some situations, wich i'd like to know how you feel about.

#1
When you have a client that need to modify his content and won't learn html. You use a CMS right ? let's say wordpress.
Do you leave the wordpress logos and copyrights in the admin ? do you skin it like your/his company identity ?

#2
the client wants a static website (he's never heard about CMS)
you use a CMS to build the site, you export it on his server
you don't tell anything to the client about the admin part (as he is completly unable to look on the server). When the client wants modifications (add a page and change navigation). you do the job in 2 hours and you charge him two days, as you would if there was no CMS involved.

#3
using expression engine
do you pay the licence and sell your work to the client or do you make the client buy the licence and then you sell your time ?


so what would you do ?
