Why the iPad 3 Retina display changes everything

The solution is to render games at 1024x768, the same resolution as the ipad 2. Scaling it up to 2048x1536 is trivial if you just treat every pixel as four pixels on the display and will look just as good/bad as the ipad 2 does.

Can't believe this article got upvoted, there is no information about anything in it.

TLDR; iPad 3 has a resolution of 2048x1536.

Same here, reading the title I was already sure this was some kind of bad mashed up article. I guess extremetech got a lot of "friends".

Give me a break with supercharging photoshop on ipad..

It kind of does not change anything, maybe it makes a big change in games for antialiasing, but that's it. It remains ti be seen if it will really improve reading on the device

Anyway..
