The appeal of vim though is that it comes out of the box or can be easily installed on any server you may be `ssh`ing into. I love Emacs, but it doesn't have that. I use Emacs on my machine, but rely on vim anywhere else.

It's a bit of a joke, but Emacs has a _very_ good vim emulator called `evil-mode` which gives you everything you could want from vim, plus all the Emacs stuff.  

When you combine that with `org-mode` and [org-evil](https://github.com/GuiltyDolphin/org-evil) then you basically have everything a person could ask for out of life, so long as that person is stunted and terrible.
