You can stick with vim if you want to. Vim is a superset of vi. The basics are the basics. Vim will let you customize your editing experience greatly once you're ready to do so.

I generally point people to vi(1) when they start because it is already there. And once they're familiar with vi(1) then they're already comfortable with vim and can start harnessing its extra power immediately.
