Why synthetic oil?

I dont want to beat a dead horse but I've been contemplating going to synthetic motor oil. I have a 1996 900s 2.3 N/A I drive about 2500 miles a month 95% highway. I change the oil/filter every 3K miles. I looked at the Mobil1 website and it states that based on "my" type of driving that Mobil may not offer much of an advantage! (see quote below). so am i wasting my money if I go to the synthetics? Thank you.
from MOBIL 1 wbsite:
"In other words, if your driving is mostly on the highway and you change your oil religiously on the manufacturer's schedule every time, you may not need Mobil 1. But if your driving is anything but "normal," Mobil 1 with SuperSyn™ can make a big difference for your vehicle's engine."
