    None. It's such a nice screen... why putting such a thing on it?

    If you're worried about scratches when you transport your system I recommend putting a microfiber cloth between the keyboard/touchpad and the screen.

    I agree with Svl7 I've had mine for like 10 months and it's still scratch free,the screens are pretty durable and i don't use a micro fiber cloth when i transport it.I probably should though :p
    I'm sure you know but make sure you use a micro fiber cloth when you do clean the screen :)

    Cheers guys, yeah I just ordered a 30x30 microfibre cloth from amazon which is machine washable and got really good reviews :D saves me money and true yeah i heard people saying that screen protector causes eye strains because it loses the vivid colours and contrast when putting it which results in bluryness.ect

    Really, if you love your laptop, you would have ordered one of these...

    given the edge to edge screen and the glass over it, there is no need for such protectors...

    I do use a microfiber cloth for transport and dust-shaking.

    you can also use the piece of clear plastic that protects your screen when they ship it new. i slip it between the screen and keyboard when transporting the laptop.
