I've used emacs for 9 years.

Last week, on a whim, I went cold turkey to vim.

The result: I'm probably staying with a (heavily modded) vim.

I added the standard bash/emacs/OS X input keybindings to insertion mode.

It feels like the best of both worlds.

The moral: it's good to branch out and try new things every now and then. You might get surprised.

I went the other way this year and am now almost totally in Emacs. I recommend trying the vimpulse package for Emacs if you ever want to come back to the dark side.
