You have 60 seconds to give me one good reason to use Emacs over Vim

There are none.

Right after you give me a reason to use Vim over Emacs

Give me one reason to use any of those...

Why not both? Emacs is a fine operating system, all it's missing is a really good text editor. Vim fills that niche well.

I use nano :^)

Don't use Emacs. Problem solved.

Emacs is a pretty good operating system, it just lacks a good text editor.

Both are fine to use, whatever helps you code better.

vi is on most servers if you work with servers at work. So it's helpful to know vi/vim versus emacs in that regard.

Both communities have a lot of plugins. I find emacs has more in the way of plugins.

You should be using Sublime Text 2.
