    I got a few "Universal Screen Cleaning Wipes" by Gizmo for signing up for a service plan. The little wipes came in individually wrapped packets and they were almost like those wet wipes you get after you eat a lobster. Even though I was weary to use these because I was slathering moisture all over my new notebook, I did it anyway. I didnt know if I should let the stuff dry or what, but it didnt say anything about drying so I let it be. It seems that the wipe has left some residue behind and if you look at my monitor at the right angle, you can see it all very clearly. The wipes do advertise resisting dust buildup, so could that be what the residue is doing? This is probably nothing and the monitor looks fine when I'm looking at it straight on, but there is this residue there and I'd like to know if that's normal.

    Thanks,
    Brian
