Pro
Looks neat

Droid Sans Mono looks beautiful. The only disadvantage is that there's no italics or bold.

Pro
Makes code very easy to read, especially if using the version where zeroes are slashed

Feels very easy to read code, even in a very small px (like 10 or 9). Letters are slightly separated, l (ell) and 1 are different, " (opening and closing quote) is straight and not angled, and the "Zero Slashed" version makes it an excellent font for coding.

Size and spacing are excellent for readability

Very easy to scan through code. Large character size for fonts of the same type size.

Con
Zero is not slashed or dotted

This can make it hard to distinguish the letter "O" from the number "0".
