Sublime is the best text editor but I have found but Webstorm is more productive for me when working on projects mainly due to jumping to definitions, more intelligent auto-complete, and better version control and refactoring tools available.
Webstorm has more sophisticated linting available than sublime and better displaying of lint errors as well.

Eclipse for Java
Sublime Text 2 for python/ruby
Recently for Web Dev (php/js/html) I have been using Brackets which I am really liking and it gets better with a few plugins (the tern plugin is a must), it is also free and open source. Also tried phpstorm/webstorm which are good but I find to be a bit clunky. My safe ground is Sublime Text 2 though.

VS2012 Ultimate for 90% of work and SQL Management Studio 2008 R2 for the other 10% but our application is mostly ASP with a little bit of PHP and Javascript. I still use Notepad++ for a lot of things but my work is so integrated into TFS etc it would be silly to use anything else.
If I was doing any other languages I'd be all over sublime text, its supposed to be excellent.

Stick with 2010, I needed VS at home so installed 2012 and its got a god awful UI. Feature wise its fine but you have to look at that UI. not nice.

How does one get VS?

google it, the express edition is free. Pro costs a fair whack.

While VS cost's a decent wedge of cash if your using it 8hours a day it pays for itself and I couldn't work without it. Same goes for Resharper looks pricey but after a month its paid for itself.

I use Dreamweaver at the moment and have done for a while, I like the related files bar it has below the files you're working on. Like any CSS or JS files etc. I just use the code view and preview it with Chrome, where I use the developer tools a lot, also got the web developer extension installed which is quite useful.
Then I've got xampp, notepad++, and filezilla - the usual most people have!
Going to give Brackets a good try though.

Brackets is excellent for quick prototyping of HTML/CSS. Not quite ready for advanced projects yet but it's moving on nicely!
