i bet i read on retina display before you did, or maybe couple hours after you
i understand what you mean by density stuff
by your mean, having retina display which should be in higher resolution, is good. But it doesn't work well with software cuz (i bet) current Mac OS X doesnt use up that.
my point is, even hardware works great, you still need software than can support it
Maybe in 10.7, it may happen. Apple started to centralize their developers
2ndly, for computer, does it needed?
iphone 3G with 163 PPI looks awful, but any 24" full HD (be it 16:9/16:10) with 94 PPI is al-right.
you wont use mac as near as your iphone.
try this, SONY VAIO F with 16" 1920X1080 with 137 PPI & macbook pro 15" 1440 X900 with 110PPI
which one is better for reading, in same reading distance
you own more Gadgets than most of us here, you tell me your experience.
btw, you way of changing font size in mac is very analogy way, literally have to tweak thru alot of times.

you're so wrong
it's the software part who make it good to read
Now you're saying:-it's the software part who make it good to read

Next time word your statement properly, because from your previous claim, you said I was wrong and it's the software part that makes it good to read, without acknowledging that software alone cannot help making legibility work, the hardware has to come hand in hand with it. Only later you backtracked and added "even hardware works great, you still need software than can support it" statement.
So again, which part am I wrong again?
Even so, the point stays. Having a low resolution on a smaller size screen would be make it legibly harder to read than a higher resolution screen on a smaller device. With high res/small device you can zoom on the fonts and still see it legibly written, but the lower res/small device, the result will be a blurry mess. I like my options open than just a "blurry mess".
