If you want a syntax-highlighting editor that is a bit more graphical than vim, good ol' Notepad++ is very nice (on Win API devices), or you may even find your system text editor is quite capable, gedit on Gnome desktops is actually usable!

I am not going to dispute your definition of low end, but will remind folks that we have a habit of moving our expectation window with regard to this term - "640k should be enough for everybody" :)
