I always like the ideas of these beautifully made single purpose applications. Inevitably I try them out, and within minutes go back to terminal, fire up emacs knowing that I can run a shell command, debug, grep/sed my output, write my documentation all in the one place. My MBA is just an emacs terminal and browser when working. christ. I sound like an emacs fanboy. I promise I am not. I think.
