Wandering a bit off topic now, but..

I guess it depends what you want/need. It is still a very competent
programmable text editor. It's GUI is definitely a bit dated, although it 
has
been updated fairly recently. It even handles embedded images now.

But if you're looking for a full blown programming IDE with all the
fancy code awareness that comes with things like Eclipse (or dare
I say Visual Studio) then don't bother.
