Shouldn't Microsoft be getting the props in this case? Samsung makes great displays (they make the MBPr display too) but the OS is the limiting factor in actually running them at the native resolution.
The operating system has to be adapted for one, but the biggest problem would be the app developers: they have to make changes to their pixel assets to suit the new resolution. Apple has the same problem, they are just aggressive about pushing developers in the right direction. Its a classic chicken/egg problem, especially when considering PC diversity (its obvious where Apple is going, its not obvious where the Window hardware providers are going).
