Thank you!

After reading your piece, I firmly believe that there are more people like me who share the belief that a full blown IDE is great for development. I am not a big fan of a text editor for development. It does not offer the debugging capabilities of an IDE, which makes more sense than looking at logger prints.

Be it Visual Studio for .NET or Eclipse/NetBeans/IntelliJ/Others for Java, it makes lots of sense to invest time to learn the ins and outs, and use them for full blown development.
