You already can get the 15" MBP with a resolution of 1680x1050. If they make that the standard I would bet that you can also get it with some higher resolution.

You already can get the 15" MBP with a resolution of 1680x1050. If they make that the standard I would bet that you can also get it with some higher resolution. (I hope that it’s not going to be 1920x1080 because that’s 16:9. I don’t know what the 16:10 equivalent is.)
The problem is that resolution independence is nowhere near finished and the new MBPs will likely arrive before OS X Lion (which could conceivably have resolution independence). Seeing as resolution independence has seen no improvements with Snow Leopard it wouldn’t surprise me if Apple just gave up on it.
- jackvalentine 16y agoThe 16:10 equivalent is 1920x1200. The one thing I dislike about this 15" Vaio I am on is the 1920x1080 screen, as opposed to a x1200 screen. For most work a taller screen is infinately more useful I find.
- Samuel_Michon 16y agoThe 16:10 equivalent would be 1920x1200. The current MacBook Air has a PPI of 135. The BTO 1680x1050 MacBook Pro has a PPI of 128. 1920x1200 on a 15" is probably overkill, even on a 17" screen that's a PPI of 132. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_displays_by_pixel_density#Apple_Inc http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_displays_by_pixel_densi....
