Emacs, Vim, or something else?

I mainly use Joe as it has similar keyboard shortcuts as Turbo Pascal had once upon a time :) But of course I can use vi(m) as a fallback, as that's available on just about any UNIX/BSD/Linux system by default. I gave a try to Emacs a couple of times, but gave up quickly...
