Studies are often reflective of people’s conditioning. When standards get raised and our eyes or ears become more sensitive to the difference, more people will be able to appreciate it.

I didn’t know standard definition sucked until I watched HD TV on a half-decent screen. Now standard definition looks like a scaled up YouTube video. And after watching Blu-rays on a 1080p plasma with a sound system that can handle uncompressed, surround audio, I find it very difficult to sit through a DVD.

I’ve been using a Retina MacBook Pro for one week and I’ve already changed my font, redesigned my narrow layout’s header, and conditionally replaced an image with text. I’ve noticed that fonts, especially, respond extremely differently on the Retina screen: many of my old, non-Retina choices simply didn’t look good, and many fonts and metrics that were previously poor for screen use can be used nicely on Retina screens.

Marco Arment on getting a leg up on the next wave of consumer computing – high DPI screens. Available now on the new iPad and the Retina Macbook Pro. Available everywhere in 2014.
