    Z61a - period. That's a 14" regular ratio and matte displays are not going to be used on any more of notebooks except for maybe a couple lower cost 15.4"'s....

    My friend brought an ASUS A6, she is a photographer, working with black and white images from her Canon digital SLR, she couldnt stand the glossy screen, so much so she returned the notebook and vowed never to buy a laptop with a glossy screen!

    So she now has a IBM.

    Some people love them, some people hate them, you cant please everyone (although I am sure it was because she was working on dark images) but hey im still getting a glossy screen!
