I prefer having a bare-bones text editor over anything with formatting. Most of the time, I don't want the formatting to carry over, I want it stripped down to just the content, just the text. Word can get annoying sometimes when you're trying to copy and paste and it does something stupid like carrying over weird frames or tables or whatever the hell. That said, I'll still use a "fancy" text editor like Notepad++ or Sublime Text.
