have you even heard of a propgram called vi? it uses a poor user-interface, provides to feedback about what it is doing or what state it is in. yet people STILL flock to it with it was writted by God Himself, because they are too afraid to switch to something with a better user interface. that has more feedback or *GASP* can tell the user what the app is doing!

Is this a joke?
Their are more editors for Linux than for any other OS. Vi is SMALL(fits on a rescue floppy) and still powerfull.

Stop making blind judgements on a software application, JUST because of a development method and style, it is childish, stupid, and makes the linux "community" look bad.

You just made yourself look bad.

All closed-source sucks, eh?
Wow. This is news to me. Imagine that, I've not had one major trouble with Mac OS X. Same with Mac OS 9, which is EVEN MORE CLOSED.
sorry, buddy. your claim doesn't hold water

But they would be better with their sources.
