You will not find Dell, HP, nor any manufacturer other than Apple referring to high resolution displays as 3Retina Displays2. But you will find nospam doing that. That was why I was pointing out that he should not do that. bull****. ??? What is bull****? what you wrote. duh. Which part? But you will find nospam doing that. or That was why I was pointing out that he should not do that. or That there is no reason why you should not do that. all of it. stop lying about what i say. Which was the lie? -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

wrote: Using 'Retina Display' as term which applies to all high resolution monitors is exactly what Apple does not want. which i did not do. See Message-ID: [Casagionnoni] If an image is produced by a sensor with the same resolution, then enough information, as levels of red, green and blue, ranging from 0 to 255, are obtained for each of the 1920 x 1080 = 2,073,600 pixcels, and the image can be displayed accordingly. Now, if the number of sensor pixcels are doubled in both dirrections, then the image is produced at a higher resolution, and fully 4 pixcels have to be mapped into each of the full screen display pixcels. In this case, the 4 should be resolved into one, using some kind of round off scheme. [nospam] what you're describing is a retina display, except that it's a lot more complicated than simply rounding off and may not be double either. -------------------------------- Not a mention of any manufacturer, let alone Apple. You straight out use 'retina display' as a generic term for all high resolution displays. no. you *assumed* that. |

So would anyone else who read what you wrote. yet another assumption. nearly all hi-dpi displays are apple retina displays, with more than 1 billion sold worldwide. dell wishes it could have sold a tiny fraction as many. |

And Apple has registered "Retina" with the US Trademark off, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office and in Jamaica. Use the term 'Retina" loosely at your peril. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

Use the term 'Retina" loosely at your peril. i didn't use it loosely. i was referring to apple retina displays and how they work. |
