"Vi" is different.
My personal experience in the IT departments I have worked says one thing:
Vi is used by the best IT professional (systems, programing, you name it).
I am sure "*Linus* Benedict Torvalds" will tell us that vi is still the
best.

Must be difficult to find a bug in vi in eclipse there are probably
millions.

For me, a 29 year old web fool vi doesn't have a mouse and all the things
Twisk mentioned but I have the deepest respect for vi users i believe their
code is generally more clean and bug free than the new ide movement  which i
integrate.
