When it comes to scaling fonts / text to be readable on HD res smaller screens I gather Macs just do it better. I tend to think that on windows with third party apps, one gets stuck with stupidly tiny fonts if the pixel res goes too high for the screen dimensions. e.g. On a 1080p 17" screen, GIMP2 fonts are small enough. I've noticed that if one goes into settings and sets screen at 125%, it's non-native and fonts are fuzzy.
