First of all, you can use :v/re/p (Replace p with whatever). Otherwise look at
negated regular expressions in http://shlomif-tech.livejournal.com/40557.html .

The bad thing about hardware is that it sometimes works and it sometimes
doesn't. The good thing about software is that it's consistent: it always
does not work, and it always does not work in exactly the same way.
