#42i'm a schizophrenic: emacs - as a user, for lisp, xml, text, html templates, everything that takes time. Launched at morning. vi/vim - as a root/admin, for editing config files, especially on remote machines notepad.exe - on windows, very rarely

...your interface to reality is unreliable?

#43vi - preferably elvis, because I'm a contrarian (and it comes as standard with Slackware)

I'm basically the same, although I have viper and vimpulse modes switched on in emacs. (Years after switching from vim I still thought non-modal editing was an aberration, so I gave up trying to brainwash myself.)
And (very) occasionally I use ed to make small changes. That's mainly just to demonstrate my 1337ness to the one person who cares (me).

#46Vi. The simplicity, speed, and the fact that it is installed on any *nix system by default are my favorite aspects of Vi. I've played around with Vim, but haven't migrated to it because I just don't use the features. At times, I have been tempted to move to Emacs due to all its cool features but have not yet, maybe some day. Emacs in slime mode has been great to use while learning lisp.
Petsonally, I can't imagine being without "zz" to center my view. I don't know if Vi has an equivalent. "zb" and "zt" are nice, too.

#49vim. if you're hacking rails in vim, make sure to check out the rails.vim plugin (http://rails.vim.tpope.net/). it rocks. also, for general-purpose web dev, use the matchit plugin (http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=39) to balance your xml/html tags.

I use Ctrl-U and Ctrl-D to reposition the screen with respect to the cursor, and it works out great.
I can see how what you describe 'zz' doing would be nice though.
