I personally use Notepad++ purely because I love a simple code editor rather than the flashy splash-screen multi-functional programs with over-featured GUI's and such.
I have some questions about netbeans before I try it:
Is it lightweight? I.e. does it have splash-screens when loading?
I like Notepad++ because it works as a normal text editor. I hate flashy applications that can achieve the same thing with much less space/CPU usage!
I used to use Aptana Studios - that was far too bundled for my liking. I like autocomplete features, I just hate the flashy GUI's, high CPU usage and such that come with them (I'm only on a 1gb RAM!)
