1) Textmate is only for mac, I prefer ubuntu :)
2) Textmate doesn't have real code completion
3) Textmate isn't good as an editor... it doesn't have tabs if you
don't use a project and even to move the sidebar, you should do a
"hack" to set it up to the right!
4) Vim and Emacs are much more powerful and extendable.

Komodoedit... hmmm I don't know him, I might try it but I doubt it can
compare with vim and emacs, this editors are used from programmers
many years.

I have used all the three and it is clear that Vim and Emacs is the
way to go for me, but I can't decide clearly... I am a bit more for
emacs.

Why do you think it is silly to use it on a GUI box? :)
