Print Size is broken because there's no way for the display to communicate its actual resolution in ppi to Photoshop, since it's dependent on both the physical size of the monitor and the way the geometry controls are set. All Photoshop knows is the total number of pixels.

On a Mac I think this is because OSX is broken, it returns 72DPI for the screen resolution, no matter what screen it is. It seems to be hardwired (I kind of boggled when I found this, since Apple likes to think it makes such "graphics" oriented machines).
