    Is it me or does the LCD have a very strong tendency to attract dust?

    I thought the days of dusty static filled CRTs were long gone, but I suppose the perfectly smooth screen attracts dusts.

    I get a fuzzy, visible layer where I find myself shifting all the dust to the center then blowing it away with a can of air almost every other day.

    Summary:
    How do you guys keep the screen clean?
    Is there anything I can do about the static?


    I appreciate your input... its annoying :mad: and I hope theres a simple remedy.

    (Referring to a DV2700, with the bright screen 1280x800 resolution)

    I keep a microfiber cloth in my bag, and wipe before I start using it. I would not suggest using any chemicals that might harm your sensitive electronics.

    Its just the glossy screen... you are able to see every anything that goes on it very clearly compared to matte screens
