I don't think it's lemming like at all - the move of many people to
Eclipse.  It certainly wasn't for me (and I was a very early adopter)
and the others here I convinced to switch.  I was resisted on every
front, for the same reasons people have said on this thread.  

"I have to learn all new keyboard commands."
"CF Studio does everything I need."
"I don't like Eclipe's layout.  I'm confused."
"It takes 10 seconds to load instead of my normal 3 seconds for Studio."

However, developers here have to do more than just write CFML.  They
write complex queries, coordinate source control efforts, apply CSS, ANT
tasks, Javascript and even some Java.  If this isn't your schtick, then
keep on grinding with Studio.  It was a great editor.  However, once
they tried it for about 2 weeks, learned all the features and got
comfortable with how it worked, they all claimed they would never go
back to Studio.

Like some others said on this list, they had 5 or 6 programs open at a
time to handle all these tasks.  Being able to do everything in one app
is a huge time saver.

Studio is perfect for people who crank out CFML 8 hours a day.  If you
have to juggle multiple tasks, then Eclipse is the way to go.

Or adapt and improvise. I just don't like the CFE experience at this
moment and as Ken said, I find that CFStudio & Homesite+ do EVERYTHING
that I need and does it VERY well.

If I need to switch to another IDE tomorrow because of a product
upgrade, a new product or a new OS, then I'll tackle it when I get
there. I just don't believe in following the crowd just because
everyone's heading in a specific direction; especially if there isn't a
VERY compelling reason to do so. Very lemming-like to me. ;)
