Glossy screens are a killer if you like working in areas with lots of natural light or sunlight. Try wearing a white tshirt, sitting in partial sunlight, and using a glossy LCD> Having said that, I find that smaller screens are fine with glossy - like my Acer Aspire One netbook. The bigger the screen, the more of a problem it is.
