Well always now, historically it has been different. Anyway to continue your description CSS pixels have usually been 1-1 with device pixels on the desktop, except for printing where CSS pixels were recalculated to a number of device pixels. In the printing sense there is there is nothing new in high DPI devices, the new devices are just the first interactive devices that end up using the printing tricks of large CSS pixels. This means we already have CSS and media query support for high DPI devices, but there are just only two meaningful DPIs on interactive devices: 96 or 192 (with 288 dpi reserved for future bling).
