As Myles said, you can turn syntax off with "syntax off" (or :syntax 
off) in your ~/.vimrc, but
if you have the vim-minimal package installed then /bin/vi will also 
contain a less featureful
version of vi (no support for syntax highlighting, no support for 
multiple buffers, or split screen).

So in reality, you can use "vim" when you want all the features, and 
"vi" when you want a minimal
editor.
