Developing DPI Aware Applications

As you are developing applications for new high-resolution devices with 192 DPI resolution displays, you might wonder where the new high-resolution bitmaps and resources should go. The simplest solution is to include them in the same EXECUTABLE alongside the old, low-resolution resources. However, this approach wastes storage space. Device screens only have one resolution, which never changes for that device. Therefore, if the application is deployed to a 96 DPI device, it doesn't need 192 DPI resources - and vice versa.
