Strange choices people make. I use vim for everything except web authoring. I 
now use screen (as recommended by James) to avoid having to use X when I'm 
programming. I have it on good authority that JEdit (written in Java) is the 
best GUI editor - my brother changed from vim to JEdit and has never looked 
back.

I do web authoring with Mozilla Composer. It's pretty good because you can 
flip between "composer", "tag editor" and "browser preview" really easy. I 
use the gimp for images - as you guys probably already know it's pretty fab.
