This might be news to you, but not everybody has Retina (or equivalent) displays
The Retina MacBook is effectively 1440x900 though, how is that straining to look at?
Why do I have the odd feeling that Apple has cornered the market on retina displays?
MBP with retina display, you mean? Otherwise you're dropping in resolution.
It might have occured when the Retina screen was no more optionnal.
Pfft, thats not a retina display.
What happens to it on a retina display?
Retina is a brand name and mainly is just a higher resolution. You are never going to see a 'Retina' display on a Windows or Linux machine. Because you are using an Apple marketing term.
true, but the difference between a 1080p and retina displays are quite stark. as is the difference between LCD and eInk. that might change things?
A Mac "Retina" display wouldn't necessarily have to be 326 dpi like the iPhone 4's: computer displays are usually quite a bit further away from the user than iPhone displays.
