my first unix account was on an IBM RT [1] running 4.3 BSD Tahoe. after all the
other users stopped bitching at me for bringing the machine to its knees by
running emacs i started using vi. never heard any complaints after that. so
i've just sorta stuck with vi ever since. :)
[1] these things give new meaning to the word slow. although they are even
worse with AIX on them. :)
