The gist is that these editors are both customizable to the extent that proficient users don't see the need to go elsewhere. They're both keyboard driven, so one finds their productivity soaring as their dependency on the mouse decreases. They're text oriented, so moving around and manipulating text is much more natural and speedy than other modern editors.

In short, give either a shot. You might find it does everything and more that your current editor does. Neither be 100% comfortable to you over night, but in time you'll wonder why you worked with anything else.

Both? There is only one.
