How important are your bonus points when creating a character?

[Smalls]

By that I mean, does it matter significantly where you put them in the long term? I'm playing a Wood Elf Ranger and decided to put them all into Strength, bringing it to 90, because I thought it would amount to more overall DPS (higher rolls and fewer misses), and more loot to carry.

What do you guys feel on the subject? Are they that important in the grand scheme of things and/or on the raiding scene?
