How Windows 8 scaling fails on high-PPI displays (techreport.com)

5 points by geoffgasior ↗ HN
Windows 8 was supposed to scale up nicely for high-PPI displays, but the RTM version has serious issues. On a 13" 1080p notebook display, text and tiles are either too big or too small, and IE10 introduces ugly artifacts when scaling web pages.

Seems to me that being able to run legacy apps is kind of more important than the scaling.
