Many Unix systems (generally the traditionalists) will include vi (as in the standard non-vim vi). Vim is then an added package that can be installed if you wish. There are also several other vi based/cloned like nvi which some Unix systems include. Vim I guess won in that its whats used for the day to day of text editing.
Vim did not win in that its a large package and users are often forced to use a lighter wieght vi clone to admin directly a on server machine.
