It's certainly interesting that it's more comfortable for you to use Page Down instead of two finger kinetic scrolling. I only find myself using the Page Down keys on Desktops instead of the mouse wheel. Well as I said, it's basically a matter of taste.
Btw. how are the screens these days? I've read that the resolution is quite low, but do they at least have good contrast / color spectrum / brightness / viewing angle? I'm asking because my father wants to buy one again (low res is actually a plus there).
- ebiester 14y agoAs for page down, I think the nicest piece of it is that when I hit page down, I know exactly where to reset my eyes when reading something that's longer. Now, space usually worked in safari, but it was suprisingly unpredictable. Of course, pages meant using option+up/down or scrolling.. We all have our quirks, I guess. :) I have the upgraded 1600x900 screen, so I can't speak to the quality of the lower resolution screen. I've heard it isn't as good, but I will say that for programming, the 1600x900 has been great. (I forgot to mention how much I hate glossy screens as opposed to matte...) From everything I've heard, the upgraded screen is much better.
- DeepDuh 14y agoThanks for the heads up. I'm not sure yet whether 1600x900 is the right choice for him; Windows software is still not as resolution independent as it should be and he needs rather large text. I think that the retina pro would actually be quite good in that aspect because the scaled resolutions are very well implemented there, however $2.3k for my father's usecase is quite a stretch ;).
