I find that I still use 80(ish)-column windows, even on today's larger
screens, mostly because that lets me fit more windows on the screen, and
extra windows tends be more flexible than extra space at the right edge of
the each window (because the extra space often ends up being largely
blank...).  YMMV I suppose.
