    Do you mean this:

     

    I notice that some applications have "Open in Low Resolution Mode" already enabled. It this normal?

    Yes. Some applications work best using the Low Resolution mode. Other applications will only run in Low Resolution mode. You can try changing this setting by removing the checkmark in the Get Info window for the application. This may or may not be possible depending on the individual application. You may also contact the developer of the application to determine if they are offering an update to the application for the Retina display.

     

     

    It's in the article you linked from. If you are asking something else, then you are going to have to be more specific about what it is you want to know.
