Hello everyone,

With the new rMBP 13" out, I think I might upgrade from my 2010 Macbook Air. I use it at home with a 27" iMac as a display, and use it alone on the road. I use windows 7 in Fusion as a 2nd desktop just for Microsoft Excel. On the Macbook Air, the 1440x900 works perfect with Fusion.

Has anyone used Excel (in Windows Fusion) on a Retina display? I am confused about this scaled business, and what it will look like to have a spreadsheet. I assume I could run it at native, but at 13" screen a spreadsheet will be tiny. I need it to look like 1440x900 but it has to be clear. Working hours a day in Excel that isn't clear is a nightmare.

Anyone have any experience with this?
