Retina, really? Maybe on select MacBooks

Higher pixel density displays make text appear sharper, as seen here on the iPad.

Retina rumors never cease. And now, according to the latest speculation, those ultra-high-resolution displays will land on select new MacBooks.
fresh report, based on data from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo with KGI, shows Retina-class displays coming on a 13-inch "MacBook" and 15-inch MacBook.
Those models could be announced at Apple's annual developers conference WWDC2012 next week.
Let's be clear. Retina displays coming to new MacBooks is not the moral certainty that it was for the third-generation iPad. Naysayers say that all of that extra resolution is not necessarily a good thing on a MacBook and a place Apple may not want to go. Particularly when Apple 13-inch and 15-inch designs already support a relatively high 1,440-by-900 resolution (and 1,920 by 1,200 on the 17-inch model).
