The compiler suite coming for all SGI MIPS-based machines is one of the best optimized development tools for any platform. SGI has put many years of experience on the newest version of the series, MIPSpro 7.4, which we recently gave it a spin.

the person below has it right...
i consider myself a person that makes things happen (as someone said above) ,... thats why i said i preferred emacs initially just for the clear fonts - clear fonts means no headache ... noheadache means getting things done.
i'll also add that i prefer the linux non-X console because i can actually read the screen without problem! emacs-nox all the way!
but the point subverted was that people who don't mind bad UI are more hardcore than you or I and get more done.
the person below put it well...

I think the point people are trying to make, or atleast what I believe is, is that if you are going to give up screen space with a graphical editor - it better be worth the space.
In my opinion, this editor is NOT worth the given up space for the crappy looking gui. How does editor compared to the most basic vi/emacs benefit you?
