Apple thinks the Mac for its Retina Display

The Developer Preview 2 for Mac OS X Lion contains wallpapers with a resolution of 3200 x 2000 and icons 1024 x 1024, which suggests that the firm is planning Mac with a screen high resolution like the Retina Display iPhone 4. Apple has also developed a method HiDPI which allows developers to more easily adapt their applications to the new resolution.

As a reminder, the firm came up with the term to refer Retina Display screens whose pixels are distinct in principle invisible to the naked eye. If the appellation is primarily a marketing maneuver, the iPhone screen 4 is one of his strengths and one wonders when Apple will install slabs such high resolution on its other products.

It is impossible to say when the mark out computers with Retina Display. The operating system is supposed to last for years and Apple is only planning for the future. Nevertheless, the firm must act quickly, because it suffers from poor performance of some tiles. A ride on the Apple forums shows that a significant number of iMac still suffer from problems of discoloration and some slabs MacBook inadequate.

The Retina Display would be a way to improve its image.
