Mini-review: IBM's answer to Emacs... A nice, full-featured, totaly expandable text editor, but with a nice UI and less bloat (aka, nobody ever bothered to port Tetris, ELIZA or a Web Browser to it)

Awesome. I'll be certain to add a few of the bigger, more useful apps from your list to mine. After all, at least in the software world, free as in speech usually translates into "free as in beer", which, after all, is what my list is all about. After all, the struggling computer/OS fan isn't going to have much money left over after buying their copy of eComstation :P
