Would really thankful if someone could do me a huge favour and post a couple of screenshots of a website (maybe the verge or even MR) with the following resolutions with and without HiDPI (using a program like SwitchResX or something)

1440
1680
1920

So all in all, 6 screenshots.
I know this is probably a pain, so thanks in advance.
 
Well, the non-HiDPI versions would just look like normal 1440x900, 1680x1050, and 1920x1200 screenshots of OSX.

Here are some screenshots of the HiDPI modes from Anandtech:

I was told if you use the non-HiDPI with SwitchResX it would look pretty blurry and very different from a classic macbook pro at those resolutions (bar 1920 since afaik the cMBP doesn't do that res)..

But you can't see that in a software screenshot. Someone will have to take actual photos of the screen to show how that looks on the display itself.
 
God, those look absolutely amazing on my 1280x800 13" screen. Cannot wait to have a hold of a MBP(R) myself!

Coming from a late 2008 umb with 13" and 1280x800 I can say this, you are in for a treat :) TONS of work space and the image this thing put's out is amazing :)
