Not quite. But you pretty much have to customize it to be really productive, and there's a substantial learning curve required to be able to customize it.

OTOH, you can do pretty much anything from within Emacs, including email. Usenet news, and using a command line. I knew folks back when who would invoke emacs as the first action after logon, and just stay in it and do everything from it.
