This is weird to me because I feel like I have the opposite problem. I don't want retina displays I derive no joy from and that eat more power for that lack of joy, never mind cause problems with differential scaling if I plug into a lower res desktop screen. I find I can't get high quality laptops that don't force me to have a too-high density screen.
I have settled for the framework because everything else about it is perfect for me, but I kind of hope someday they sell a replacement non-hidpi screen for it and I will very much buy it. The possibility of those kinds of choices down the line is why I bought into it.

- stevage 5y agoThat's fascinating. One of the things I like about HN is encountering people who have such radically different preferences. For me, my big pet peeve is the difficulty of finding a high resolution (4K/5K) desktop monitor that is not enormous.
