I use Descent on Ubuntu and Poseidon on Windows; both have their pros and cons yet I don't feel at home like I do in VS in either of them. Poseidon is simple, light and fast, but doesn't have that many features, although the customizable syntax highlighter, project manager and very simple build process are awesome. Descent on the other hand has a very nice syntax analyzer and tons of features, but requires eclipse which is too heavy for my tastes (thanks to java), has no syntax customization so new keywords are marked as errors, and the build process is a pain to setup, even with ant.

Well it's a great quote, made me laugh out loud the first time I saw it :)
