I’m about to replace my G4 laptop with a 15″ Macbook Pro. And I’m torn about the screen. This will be a general purpose computer — email & web, word processing, some editing and still photography (using a second monitor when possible).
I’ve looked at the glossy and matte screens pretty carefully. Glossy seems sharper and I tend to like it better — but if you have a light source behind your head, you see reflections clearly. For editing, glossy makes video look more like a TV, and thus more appealing, but for stills it seems almost too sharp and edgy.
Does anybody here have experience with the new glossy screens on the Macbook Pros? What do you think? Better or worse?
