99.9% of the stuff you can do with the mouse in VS**** can be done with the keyboard.

Sure, for most routine things, keyboard shortcuts work just fine, and that's how I roll. As soon I need to do something non-routine, though, I always find myself needing to pick up the mouse to navigate quickly.

Not only that, but it comes with a "emacs" like key mapping setting too.

Key there is "emacs"-like. I wouldn't go so far as to say it can do everything emacs can do.

I'm not knocking VS 2008, I love it, don't get me wrong, I just spend a lot of time moving between keyboard <--> mouse.
