I think many people use Emacs for anything except a few things.
Probably the #1 thing most heavy Emacs users _don't_ use for is Web
browsing, since Firefox is so powerful (this is purely guessing from my
side).
I personally use Emacs for (almost) everything except shell interaction,
for that I use Bash. I use Gnus, PlannerMode, emacs-w3m, and so on.
It's a way of life :)
Another thing I've wondered about is, do people use Emacs in (primarily)
X or console?
For me it's the console.
