[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1648292, member: 56379"] We aren't disagreeing.:) - "Sharper or Clearer Looking" is one parameter. - More "screen real estate" or more room…is a different parameter. So if someone prefers a sharper/clearer looking display…then they choose the 13" retina MBP's Native resolution. If someone would like "more room"…then they can choose a different resolution.:) The one downside with choosing a different resolution to get "more room" (on a small 13" display)…is everything on the display becomes smaller. So if someone does not have good eyes…things can be difficult to see clearly. If more screen restate is needed/desired…this is where an external monitor is a great idea.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
