Macbook matte screen protector?

digdog1 · #1 10-29-2008, 11:06 PM

Like many other Mac users, I'm conflicted about the glossy-only screens on the new Aluminum Macbooks. To me, the Macbook's glass screen seems even more reflective than the glossy finish of the MacBook Air -- and I have one of each, so I can compare them side-by-side.

Question: when is someone gonna market a 13-inch satin/matte finish screen protector and moot this point? I've got one for my iPhone that does a perfectly satisfactory job of tamping down the shiny-shiny (and also reduces fingerprints and other goop, which really show up on the glossy glass finish).

Does anybody make a product like this? Seems like a lucrative potential market to me...

Thoughts?

The glossy screen makes it hard to work anywhere but in a very dark room. dgloss provides a solution with a matte screen protector that effectively eliminates glare on your MacBook, MacBook Air or MacBook Pro. dgloss is fully removable, leaving no residue on your screen.

not to point out the obvious, but have you tried unseating and reseating the actual card? Im not sure how to do that on a macbook, but it would seem a logical move if only or diagnostic purposes.

I have a virus which disables safemode theirs a program that forces the computer into safe mode I ran it and my computer is trying to go into safe mode but the virus is disabling it and causing y computer to endlessly loop and not turn on, ever! I tried recovery consol and everything just had to make an account to ask this because no one knows the answer. I have been tryign to remove a couple of viruses that disable my taskmanager and my safe mode boot. So to force my computer into safe mode, i used bootsafe. Now my computer is stuck in an infinite loop attempting to go into safe mode but it restarts into the first page. I went into recovery consol and typed DEL boot.bat that seemed convincing so i retryed and it didnt work. So im desperate for help. Theirs years worth of pictures in their. unlock iphone 3g

I haven't really looked for one though as i believe they make the screen blurry and just kill the enrichment of media but if you have kids around they it's important to have one. I will suggest to look on ebay you will find many on ebay or try mono price they have some good deals as well just one thing make sure to order from a us seller for fast delivery other wise you may have to wait a month or so.
