I think he meant: "While vim is a great text editor, I stick with Emacs because it's pretty much an OS in its own right, and even a crappy OS is better than just a text editor."

... I'm a vim user :)

yeah, i wouldn't use windows 95 over vim either.

I think that would be a slightly more appropriate claim if Emacs supported multiple threads, or lexical scoping...

... or page tables, or a custom filesystem, or the ability to involve a million developers in a battle about which is the "best"...

Well, 1 out of 5 isn't a bad start. We should totally develop an EmacsOS and market it as "the most customizable operating system ever".

Chromacs is good. Its marketing tagline could be "Chromium's mac daddy".

Apparently the '>>>>>' operator is defined as "divides your total karma score by 2^N". I hope for his sake that the value of 'text editor' is small. :)
