Please let us stop this. I know emacs. 10 years ago I was a university
student having fun in coding in lisp. Point here is that unless you're
willing to learn the specifics of it, you are lost in emacs. Now please
let's not start a discussion about how useful is to learn. Learning is
my profession, plus, I know how to dissect my ubuntu and my computer
until the bare hardware. I am talking of a different thing: the concept
of usability introduced by both graphic improvements such as completion
pop-ups, and by automation, (e.g. no need to discover what "reftex" is,
because the system just completes citations) *does* matter. We can't
just say "hey emacs will be better" because this won't equate the offer
on the market. I can install emacs under windows if I really want.

NOT that I ever used windows since when I was a slave of a microsoft
slave. That's not the point.
