Well, it's a tool designed for producing /printed/ text. That is its 
special emphasis. If you're not interested in writing stuff on dead 
trees, TeX is a waste of time, essentially.

I've written fictional stories with it though. It works quite nicely for 
that purpose. It's also not bad for writing documents about technical 
subjects which aren't necessarily "scientific publications". For 
example, writing about how to program in Java.
