The good old DOS Editor is gone in Windows 7. You cannot type "edit foo.txt" anymore to create a quick text entirely in DOS prompt. Yes, you can use notepad nowadays.
Before there was fullscreen editor in DOS, there was edlin, and I never used it.
The MS-DOS editor made sense, and ooh you can even use the mouse. It was HUGELY BETTER than the Unix vi. Ok, it is a matter of preference. :wq!

IMO vi/emacs is much better than edit/notepad. I use notepad++ in windows.
