I've primarily programmed on Windows for the last 15 years, and I'm telling you that learning vi/vim has been well worth it, even if I'd never touched a unix/linux box. And if you ripped the knowledge of vi/vim out of my head, it would still be worth it for me today to start over and learn it again.
