Did you forget the " ;-)" or are you serious?
Emacs is for sure a very good one, but there are a lot of popular
alternatives, if you have a look at the (for sure not representative) voting
on the answers of this discussion here:
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/339/latex-editors-ides
(It's clear, that people may have voted for several of those editors, so
that no valid statistics at all, but at least an idea...)
Is there any real survey result about which editors LaTeX users use?
