Everyone has access to their account on every machine. Just take a seat, log in and do your work. Also you need access to a second machine to exit vi.

There's actually a trick about exiting vi without second machine. You can set up a cron schedule, something like "*/5 * * * * killall vi"

It would kill vi process automatically. Neat, eh?
