For reading, writing, coding, for everything to do with text. Seems like it's taking the lcd industry forever to get to what the ibm T221 had 15 years ago. And boy the few monitors that are out are pricey. Or you need to buy a super expensive notebook like the chromebook pixel or the retina macbook pro to have a high ppi monitor, because tablets don't cut it due to size.

That's really one technological advance I can't wait for to arrive. That and liquavista, if it's viable that is and doesn't go the way of mirasol.
