screen resolution is measured by total pixel count, not dpi, or more correctly ppi. your screen resolution, for instance, is 1024x768, not 72 ppi. ppi can change varying on different monitor resolutions, lcd vs crt, etc...
a modern crt can display anywhere between 72–130 pixels per inch. this number is the dot pitch of that monitor, and is independent of platform.
because 72 is generally the lowest number, it's also why it's the standard.
