7 Reasons Why I still like VI

I cut my teeth on UNIX 25 years ago and the first text editor I ever leaned to use was vi (on AT&T UNIX) .  Over  the last 25 years computer interfaces have progressed from ASCII to GUI and programming has progressed from command line to IDE's and I've moved along with with then. But recently I moved my development system from Windows to Linux and had rediscovered VI. Here are my 7 reasons that I still like it and one new one:

1. It runs in pretty much any terminal environment
2. Being able to open and edit multiple files with a wildcard from the command line
3. sed scripts for mass edits 
4. You can delete a word or a series of words with 2 or 3 keystrokes
5. The dot (.) repeat last command key
6. Never having to touch a mouse
7. Being able to impress younger colleagues

One new reason that vim provides:

1. Groovy Syntax highlighting

By the way you can install vim on your windows machine too so you can have these advantages anywhere.
