Originally carpel-tunnel.  Once I discovered that Vim could do the
important things I wanted emacs for (syntax coloring, multiple-windows,
indenting, and such), I learned the advanced features of Vim, and my wrists
recovered.

My other gripe with emacs is that there is no stable version that has
anti-aliased text rendering.  Other issues are that I could never run it
anywhere else, because I didn't have my massive customizations from my .emacs
file.
