    I recently got a Gateway 7405GX, the screen is very pretty, I have a few smudges on it and am wondering what the best option for cleaning this screen is, it's very glossy so I am afraid to use anything rough like a paper towel which will leave small scratches.

    An acquaintance of mine suggested this, and it really works...

    take an old flannel shirt and cut it up into pieces. Moisten one of the pieces and use it to wipe the screen. Then take the dry flannel and rub the screen in a circular fashion to dry it off. You have to be careful what type of cloth you use, because the surface of the LCD can scratch more easily than you realize if you're not careful.
