No harmt meant but I'm SCJP since more than 10 years and have been both a long time IntelliJ (still have IntelliJ version 4 installation files backups on CDs, found them yesterday) and a long time Eclipse user and I'm now using Emacs.

I know, I know: Spring, refactoring, ORM + XML hell and whatnots for hundreds of K's codebase of 'enterprisey' stuff doing really not much...

But as a now long-time Emacs user (since a few years) watching IntelliJ vs Eclipse fight looks a bit like like Lada vs Yugo car owners fighting about who has the best car ; )
