VIM is better than emacs

Comparing vi to emacs isn't fair. Vim is full featured, and like emacs must be installed as an additional package on most distros.

VIm is the lazy-man's emacs.
Well, Pico and Nano are the lazy-man's VI (and VIm), and I admit to using Pico all the time. :)
GNU Nano is the bomb, but I would use VI(M) over Emacs any day. I'm still recovering from Emacs related finger RSI.
I recently swapped the keyboard mappings of Control and Caps Lock...
blimmy the only time I want to mess with meta keys is when using some sort of gui, textmate, or even screen(1).
yes, I'veplayed with pico, nano and a few others. they where lacking. Give me something that's GTD friendly anytime and that my friend imho is vim.
"VIm is the lazy-man's emacs."
QED.
