I certainly never expected to be confronted by someone with such a major stake in glossy screens!

I will tell you that it is a FACT that LCD screens were made mate for exactly the reason I gave.

Beyond all that, the reason why glossy screens seem to have become popular, especially with notebooks, is that they offer better outdoor readability.

Moreover, just for the record, my post wasn’t a complaint so much as it was an explanation for those who care to increase their understanding of the facts.

I don’t own a glossy screen any more, computer monitor or television, so I have nothing to complain about.

Perhaps if I buy one of the new Mac laptops, I will buy one of the films you suggest. Thanks.

I certainly never expected to be confronted by someone with such a major stake in refusing to go out and buy a matte filter or an anti-glare film for 10 bucks, then claiming he has no stake in an issue he's now complained about multiple times.

By the way, claiming you have hold of "facts" and then linking to Wikipedia is a self-defeating tactic.
