I haven't tried vim 7 yet, but it sounds nice. vim 6.2 is still my editor of choice, because it has many functions other editors don't have, such as regexes - they make editing a file a whole lot easier.
EDIT:
Omni completion
It is a smart kind of completion like the intellisense. It is most useful for people who write code. For example, if I am writing HTML code and I have saved the file with the extension .html, then Vim will automatically load the HTML tag file and when ever I want Vim to auto complete the HTML code, while in Insert mode, I press the key combination [Ctrl+x] [Ctrl+o] and Vim will smartly guess the correct keyword and insert it. If there is any ambiguity, then Vim will show the possible completions in a pop up window. This feature is presently available for 8 languages which include C, (X)HTML with CSS, JavaScript, PHP, Python, Ruby, SQL and XML. It is also possible to add custom omni completion scripts.

This looks like a brilliant feature, the only reason why I'm still using Dreamweaver for HTML.[/quote]
