My 15" MBP has the matte screen. Its not as "matte" as the older
white iBook screens, but is nothing like the new glossy. I'm very
happy with my choice. I work with lots of overhead light and the
reflections on other glossy screens is distracting to me. The glossy
is nice and makes for a beautiful display, but I couldn't take the
reflection. If that issue is important to you its worth clarifying
before purchase. A trip to an Apple store or other retail place, or
to see a friend's new iMac is what I'd do.

I just helped a friend pick out a portable Mac (bought a Macbook
Pro with a
15" monitor). The Macbook Pro came with a choice of monitors --
matte screen or
glare screen. My friend chose the matte screen. My guess (my hope!)
is that
the iMacs also come with a choice of screens. The glare screen
looks annoying.

finish, so
if bright lights around, can have reflection problems. the rest
of the world
