Apple planning Retina Display Macs

A interesting finding was found in the developers version Mac OS Lion. The background image found on Mac OS lion is a super ultra res of 3200x2000 pixels. Also the icons are super res up,being stored as 1024x1024 instead of 512x512. This is higher then any Mac computer display has ever supported, so it may be pointing out that Apple has plans for retina displays in the future.

Basically, Retina means that everything will stay the same size, but it will pack in twice as many pixels, making images and icons looking sharp and more detailed. Text will be easier to read and it will be a bonus for those that edit photos on their Macs. 

When will Apple release Retina displays, I doubt it will be this year or even the next as only the Iphone 4 currently has Retina display. I don't think they are ready to sell a 27 inch retina imac just yet. But I expect we will see Retina come to Ipad next year, and shortly after Macbooks will be getting it. 

One thing you gotta love about Apple, they do have nice displays.
