Vim
Vim can be really powerful if you know how to use it. But it can take a lot of time to know how to use it. The concurrent of vim is emacs and I can say exactly the same sentence about it. I use vim everyday and I can’t stand using Dreamweaver for example!
Transition
Switching from dreamweaver to vim might be too difficult, use notepad++ intermediary. But Vim is usable on windows 7, no doubt.
Switch only to Vim when you feel confident using standard editor and not wysiwyg editors and if you really feel like you are ready to learn and struggle (from dreamweaver to vim is too painful in my opinion).
