In my exprience 80% of mainly Windows devs (in professional 
environment) use Visual Studio + plugins (e.g. Visual 
Assist/Dpack etc.). Most of the remaining 20% use Visual Studio 
with vim keybindings/emulation or they code with vim/emacs, but 
use Visual Studio for debugging. And the last 2% use something 
completely different.

I think Visual Studio is the professional standard for C/C++/C# 
on Windows (as in Windows is the main platform and not some bad 
port hacked on top of cygwin). Basically what Xcode is for Mac.
