As reported earlier about the possibility of Apple planning a retina display for Mac, just like what we have on the iPhone 4. In addition to the beautiful and huge wallpaper, new icons with higher resolution have now been discovered as well.
MacMagazine.com.br has found several icons with resolution of 1024×1024 compared to what we now have in Snow Leopard – 512×512. Click the image above to see it in full resolution.
This is probably a first step towards Apple’s release of retina display in their desktop computers, when the hardware allows them to.
