Ok, so I learned that PhpED is only for Windows.  That rules me out  
(OS X).  No worries, I love Eclipse.

Jim, I would need to see your system configuration to know why your  
Eclipse is slow.  Mine is speedy, but it may just be my machine.   
(MacBook Pro w/2gb RAM)  I really enjoy Eclipse and the SVN plugin  
(subversion) works amazingly well.
