>how could you not love a high-dpi display? When the software doesn't handle it well. I don't particularly like any implementation of high DPI scaling. OS X's scaling caused performance issues for me, and programs would get confused moving between monitors. Linux doesn't have any way that I know of to cope with monitors with significantly different resolutions - eg, I can make the window manager scale everything 2x so it looks good on the 'retina' display, but I still have a 1080p monitor attached too, so then everything is huge on that. Even without multi monitor issues, scaling tends to be picky with some programs on most OSs. OS X seems to be the most consistent, Linux is a roulette wheel depending on your GPU/window manager/program/day of the week. Windows works sometimes but looks blurry. I have Linux installed on my work Mac and just run the 'retina' screen at 1920x1200.
