I made the terrible error of trying to use vim as an IDE when I was learning to program. Honestly I think it set my progress back 75%.

Don't get me wrong, I use vim all the time cause it's there on any machine I log in to, but I found I was MUCH more productive when I paid for a good IDE for development.

And YES I tried using all the plugins to make vim into an IDE. That was half the problem.
