MacBook Pro screen

Bill, This will give you a comparison of the MacBook Pro models. The mat display is not offered on the 13", but is on the 15" and 17".

I'm looking into buying a Macbook Pro, but can't find any options to the standard glossy screen. Where do I look for information about ordering a matt screen with the computer?

Under the customize your (or build) machine,
if you wanted to add ram, hard drive space etc,
scroll down and it will give three display options.

Good luck! I have one with an anti glare screen and youll be much happier......

The replacement MacBook Pro came, (with the anti glare screen and its higher rez level). I spent some time setting it up and filed my first few jobs back to the paper with it.

What a difference. Well worth the few extra hours to deal with Applecare and set up the machine again.
Bill if you are looking to shop for one of these, get the non glare, higher rez, screen.
Well worth the 150 bucks more.

I don't have a mat screen on mine but I can't imagine either being much use in broad daylight?

Sadly, not much choice in the newspaper "fast to the web" world. Yesterday I shot 5 jobs, 4 for the next days paper and to be filed asap, 2 were sent from the front seat of the car.

Here was my solution on location in Florida ;-)) Assistant under reflector...

Must be nice to have someone else under the hood for you!
