[QUOTE="yoyotach, post: 3441787, member: 876008"] Some updated UI elements in the latest version of OS X Lion hint at the possibility of higher-resolution, Retina display-like Macs. Mac tips: [URL="http://www.macvideoconverter.org/guide/convert-wma-to-mp3-mac.html"]wma to mp3 mac[/URL]. If you’re the kind of person that notices the resolution of your mouse pointer, you will have observed that the hovering icon in OS X 10.7.3 has been upgraded to a HiDPI resolution. What does that mean? You could be able to get your grimy hands on a Retina display Mac in the near future.
