Honestly I do not like vi or vim, but I often use it to the extend that 
when I am on my windows system and need some notes, I open an ssh 
session to my Linux desktop and start typing the notes using vi.

Same thing with sqlplus for Oracle. Many times I have my GUI tool open 
already, I still open a separate sqlplus session to use.

Using the CLI tools is a sign of getting old, I think :)
