In the UK they have been doing that for years with Car Adverts and it drives you nuts.
It was said they could never make adverts like the UK ones in the US as it would be a waste of time.
Modern car adverts tell you sod all about the car. they try and sell you a lifestyle or sell you a feeling that goes with the car. Making out that if you buy this car, you too with have a beautiful wife, 2 pretty children who behave perfectly and are always happy and you are driving in some area with superb landscape.
Drives you crazy these adverts.
I love being able to watch 720p movies... and having games in high deff. Angry birds looks amazing with the Retina updates!
Guess you never like OLED screen on every hi-end Android phone then 'cause you'll never have "correct color" on them.
No what ? You say No then go on to say the exact same thing I did. Basically that 326 ppi is a treshold for a certain viewing distance. 326 PPI is exactly like I and you said, a resolution for a screen size. 4 pixels in 1 just means you have a higher resolution on the same size screen (3.5" screen, 480x320 and 960x640 respectively).
This is what I said and furthermore :
This is exactly what I said again. Are you just disagreeing and then saying the same thing to make it look like I was wrong ?
326 ppi is dependant on being at a normal viewing distance for a phone screen. A computer screen is looked at from further away, and a TV from much further away, so the pixel density (number of pixels per inch) can be lower while still allowing for the same retina effect.
Obviously not. Clearly I'm talking about the possible future, where screens with a higher pixel density are common.
The only possibilities here are A) legally blind or B) trolling.

You should really learn that there is more then 1 way to get hi def video.
I watch hi def video on my 27" iMac all the time. Blu-Ray Isn't the only way to get hi def video...
I don't believe the 326 ppi is dependent on the distance between the phone and the eyes.
Try using some magnifier lens.
http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/features/retina-display.html has more info on the screen resolution.
Uh ? Of course it's not. PPI, Pixels per inch. It's the number of pixels you have in an inch of screen.
The retina effect is what is dependant on the distance between the screen and the eye on top of the screen's resolution and size (PPI).
Seriously, guys, at least try to understand my posts...
1. Plug phone into computer
2. Find the video on Explorer/Finder
3. Drag video onto desktop
4. ???????
5. Profit
Do you have working eyes? Thats like not noticing the difference between an apple and an orange.
Why not? Your 27" screen far exceeds 1080p. Do you have a clue what you're talking about or are you complaining about the lack of blu-ray support?
I was able to get it over $19K on hardware only. Of course, no one would order some of this stuff for a workstation configuration. $14-15K was the max for an insanely pimped-out workstation.
Never understood the troll mentality. It's more telling than anything. Usually if someone hates or dislikes something they avoid it and it doesnt get the time of day to bother. I hate brussell sprouts and beets. When Im at the store I dont hang out at the brussell sprout and beet display mocking it, I go get the stuff I want and enjoy, unless it is I truly like brussell sprouts and just wont admit it....food for thought trollers
's gorgeous retina display!
