Master Page Migration from SP 2007 - Perplexed

With the introduction of ribbon comes the complexity/confusion. I have a simple master page in SP 2007 which is based on a 3-column layout with a banner on top. Now, if I want to migrate this master page, looks like it is mandatory that I include the ribbon. What if I do not want to include ribbon? I need a simple 3-column layout.

I am getting an error if I do not include the ribbon. Can I hide the ribbon control?

Yes, you can hide it. Check out this post on my blog for an example that uses C#. http://www.elumenotion.com/Blog/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=106 You use this in control that you add to the master  page.

Alternatively, you can do this with JavaScript. Here is an article that shows that technique. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/zwsong/archive/2010/04/29/how-to-hide-ribbon-from-users-without-edit-page-privilege.aspx
