I will (almost certainly) never switch from my current configuration to use any of these all-in-one package bundles, but I do like looking through them for ideas.

I had a configuration that I was nursing along for several years, but after seeing Prelude [0] I realized that it would be much simpler for me to let the community to most of the work for me. Now I have a consistent environment for most languages and I am able to make small tweaks on top.

Same here. My Emacs is always on configs of my own, but I do mine other peoples' configs for ideas like crazy.

Yeah, me too. I also love watching people use emacs. There's always something neat that I haven't seen before. Unfortunately that is a very rare pleasure for me. I've only seen emacs in the wild a few times and mostly they were old professors using it with the standard configuration.

Yes, me too. I can always learn something new by reading others' configs.
