Spurred by the launch of the Google Nexus 10 earlier this week, Torvalds took to his Google+ page to declare/rant: “So with even a $399 tablet doing 2560 x 1600 pixel displays, can we please just make that the new standard laptop resolution. Even at 11”? Stop with the ‘retina’ crap, just call it ‘reasonable resolution’. The fact that laptops stagnated ten years ago (and even regressed in some cases) at around half that in both directions is just sad.”

I agree that it would be nice to see more widespread adoption of higher resolution displays. But seriously, I think Apple can call it whatever it wants on the devices they make. For the moment, super high-res displays are a differentiator, and as such are a good marketing tool.

Maybe. The iPad and Retina-based MacBooks seem to do OK with battery life.
