I own a late-2011 Macbook Pro 15" with the Hi-Dp display. Is there a hack that will allow me to turn on Retina mode on my mac? I understand that the end result will only be pseudo-retina, but I was just curious to see if there was such an option.
No. Your display is only 1440X900 pixels, and you can't go more then that.
i have the 1680x1050 display, i was wondering if there's a hack to to a retina scale down to 1440X900?
But what would be the benefit from that? You would lose screen real estate (and 1440 x 900 pixel is abysmal on that display) and gain (if it is even possible to do so) only a minuscule better graphic rendering. Your resolution is only 1.36 times better than the standard resolution. A "Retina" display has four (4) times the resolution of that.
it's not something that you can manage with a software. You are limited by your hardware.my question relates to whether such a hack exists and i'm assuming the answer is no. the other factors you mentioned are subjective and debatable.
