I used Unix almost exclusively throughout grad school and at my first 3 R&D jobs, and my editor of choice was vi.
Spent a good amount of time this weekend working with a Raspberry Pi and decided to relive the good old days by doing everything with vi. Ah, the joys of mouse-less text editing :)
Back working in Windows / Office this morning, went to spell check, and found ":w" throughout my document. |O
