    Hi,

    I notice lots of computers have glossy LCD. I tried to work with that and the only place I can work is in a semi-dark / no sun place. Otherwise I can see myself on the screen.

    How people manage to work with a gloss LCD , ? Is there a way to make it less gloss ? Are matte LCD better/worst than gloss ones ?


    Thanks

    100% of the time, I'm working indoors, so it doesn't matter. You can still get matte screens from almost all of the business line laptops.

    would you rather take someone's opinion than say go to bestbuy and seeing for yourself?
