    I use the Monster ScreenClean kit. It comes with a Microfiber towel and cleaning solution. It leaves the screen shiny with no streak marks. You can find it at Best Buy or here at Amazon:

    Since there's a piece of plastic over the LCD, I don't think "LCD cleaner" is necessary. I'd say a damp microfiber towel.

    Microfiber cloth...
    Your "breath" on the screen and the m.fiber cloth gently to clean also works well.

    And, I ordered (2) Shaggymac's 1 to protect the Screen/Keyboard & 1 to clean. They work great. Asherek' here on the Dell forum recommended them! :D

    You can always find a 10% off Coupon for these! :)

    Also, Walmart tends to have good deals on M.fiber cloths. Or, just stop by your local Eye Dr.'s office ~ and they will most likely give you one for free! :cool:

    ...damp paper towel. It's inexpensive, and bio-degradable. Works for me, streak free, too..
