Default for Sublime Text, avaialble on IntelliJ products and Eclipse via plug-in. Usually ranked in top 3 of highest downloaded theme for a IDE.

Pro Easy to install with Vundle
Pro Low-contrast comments
Gray-on black comments fade into the background so they don't distract you, but they're still bright enough to read when you want to.
Cons
Con That pink
The pink color is too vibrant if compared with others. It pops out from context and may blend with red errors in some editors.
