Reminds me of GNU Emacs. The same logic applies to it, after all it
does many more things than OpenOffice.org. Many 'savvy' users do have
a liking for it. Do you think it is 'good enough'?
that is another monster. I personally know several people who use it
for macho reasons, and it is a serious hindrance to their
productivity. It is like the harley davidson bike - the owner is so
busy tuning it and bragging about it that he rarely gets to go
anywhere. If i program, i like specialised tools - one for html, js
and css, another for python, another for text editing, another for
remote editing ...
