I though it interesting that after hating on NERDTree, he went on to suggest a plugin that requires Ruby and VIM compiled with Ruby support, which isn't likely to exist on most.
I'm not a VIM purist. I use the arrow keys, and I use the mouse a lot. I find NERDTree to be tremendously easy to use and helpful when on a local system.
On remote systems, though, I generally just edit 1 file at a time and don't need NERDTree. For multiple files, :e works just fine in those situations.
