I do everything with emacs. I use emacs via emacspeak. emacspeak is an eyes-free environment that allows the visually impaired to use their computers as a rich and powerful auditory desktop. I am running X and emacs starts immediately, much like a window manager. From there I use: gnus as mail / news / rss reader emacs/w3 and emacs-w3m to surf the web nxml mode for html authoring php-mode emacs-lisp-mode for emacs lisp bmk-mgr mode for keeping up with web bookmarks between the browsers and so much more. I do all the things other computer users do. I have to edit config files. I listen to music using a mode in emacspeak for mplayer. I listen to streaming audio. You name it, emacs is where I do it.
