I use vim for most of my development as well, although we officially use Dreamweaver at work mostly because of its Site features.
I am a long time "vi" user (since about 1984) and for many years 
preferred to develop code using vi from a command line whether working 
on a unix based or windows machine.   A few years ago I started playing 
with a couple of IDEs and started using Eclipse and have become a total 
convert.   Most of the programming I do is in java (I have also been 
using the Spring Framework for about 5 years) but I also do a bit of PHP 
and since most of the development work is in web applications with with 
xml, html, css, javascript, java server pages, etc.  Eclipse handles all 
of them well.
