I've found one of the best ways to experiment with other text editors is to use them for one specific type of task or type of file. So when I started using vim I only used it edit config files. Makes it easier to lock into the mental mode of using a particular editor.

This is a very good piece of advice! I do have to configure my emacs every time I take on a new type of task albeit not very often. I'll give it try next time. Thanks!
