80 chars line length limit is there for historical reasons : VT 100 terminals where 25x 80 chars screen. Nowadays, even on a 15" laptop, I can see around 150 chars on an edited file (in eclipse), even if the edited file is not full screen (ie, I have the package explorer on the left and the Outilne on the right). 120 is really a good limit.
