I think you need to get your eyes checked.

  For many people a matte screen is non-negotible. In fact, no company would dream of selling a glossy screen mobile device until the iPhone proved that people would tolerate it.

    Who are these people? I don't think most people even know the difference between a matte vs glossy screen much less even care.

      Artists, programmers, normal people. All kinds of people. Matte screen option was simply taken away, leaving these people with the choice of sticking to an old computer or monitor, or upgrading. I for one am content to keep my old laptop with its nice screen and keyboard, and do any heavy lifting on a different computer. It's quite easy - ssh, x11, VNC, etc.

        Artists, photographers etc want colour accuracy and contrast, which is better on a glossy display (with anti glare coating). As your entire workload is apparently developer based, knock yourself out with a matte screen but I don't want one as I do both that side of things and the art side of things...

          How would an artist not want a matte screen? You don't have an option either way. It's not about want, you simply can't obtain one in a laptop these days.

    You're talking rubbish. There are various grades of glossy screen and anti-glare coatings. The MBP is absolutely fine as is the Studio Display. Dell's stuff is NOT ok in contrast. It's not about tolerating it but about the superior contrast possible and the quality of the coating, something Apple get spot on.

      They're not "absolutely fine," they're horrid. It's garbage.
