Well it comes back to my original statement of the choice being a very
personal thing. If it really was that eclipse was the best for
everyone then there wouldn't be so much choice. I used eclipse for a
while but Ganymede was terrible, at least when it first came out. Its
loading time was longer than open office. It crashed every few
minutes. The developers just said my laptop didn't meet the minimum
spec.

I know its a generalisation and like all generalisations there will be
exceptions, but I think the more experienced the programmer the more
they want their editor to just get out of the way and let them code.
This is why so many experienced developers like vi and emacs. If only
the keyboard shortcuts made some sense....

I spend about 10 hours a day in front of my editor, so any small
irritations, soon become major annoyances. It has to be just right,
and this is maybe why I never settle on one. Sometimes I think of
writing one that just suits me :-)
