    I got the nx860xl with the glossy screen but I think it also has an anti-reflective coating too which causes the screen to appear "grainy" or "sparkely" which I hate. Anyone else notice this?

    That's a somewhat common complaint about screens like this. Some people aren't bothered by it and some people absolutely hate it.

    what do you mean by screens like this? Because for my next laptop purchase I want to steer clear of this type of screen. My $300 13" compaq laptop has a better looking screen. :\
