    what brand has the best 17.3 inch anti-glare screen protector? i see one from green onion and view guard and some ebay ones from hong kong. are they any good? They say it's impossible to not have bubbles during installation and impossible to remove them. Also is 17.3 inch 16:9 ratio protector one size fit all on any 17.3 inch laptop?

    I have a kai anti glare on my lappy. As long as you get the screen size and aspect ratio correct most any protector should be interchangeable.

    It is NOT impossible to do this without bubbles, you need a totally clean screen, correct alignment when you start, even application, and a credit card to work out bubbles as you are applying it. You can back up a small amount if you have major problems. Most bubbles are caused by dust particles.

    Some are removable and even washable.

    The only consideration is that they cut down on brightness, if you have a nice bright screen to begin with it's not really an issue, but it varies.
