Instead of a 1,440 x 900 pixel display that's been scaled to fit a 2,880 x 1,800 pixel screen, your images will take advantage of every screen pixel, and the surrounding UI elements will be sharper and easier on the eyes as well. I need to know if a MacBook Air can operate as smoothly as an iMac when working with Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Muse, and After Effects. Retina support in Photoshop puts an end to blurry interpolation of images displayed in Photoshop, not to mention the surrounding buttons and icons that make up the user interface. Will a Macbook Air run Adobe Creative Cloud Apps as quickly as an iMac I am looking to trade in an iMac for a MacBook Air, for portablity reasons, want to be able to work on the go. program or from the Start menu or screen (Win) or the App folder (Mac). Today, that changes, with the announcement by Adobe of an update to Photoshop CS6 that brings support for Retina displays, fulfilling a promise made last August. Acrobat Pro for graphic design the programs include Photoshop, Illustrator. Your software has to support Apple's Retina HiDPI displays to take full advantage of all those extra pixels, and until now a key tool in the photographer's arsenal hasn't done so. Even if you fit your image to the screen, you're still looking at a full five megapixels of detail, more than double that provided by even the best MacBook Pro models from 2011. All those extra pixels let you see more of your images on-screen at once without discarding the fine detail. For photographers, the latest-generation Apple MacBook Pro notebooks are mighty appealing thanks to their extremely high-resolution displays.
