   I have the newest macbook and I was worried about the glare, but I haven’t had that much of a problem. There was this one day I brought it into a really sunny lecture hall and I could sort of see the people sitting in the row behind me because of the glare, but if you don’t use it in direct sunlight, you should be okay.

   I am a proud owner of a Macbook Pro. I do not have any problem with the glossy screen. I think it enhanced my viewing experience. I would definitely go with the Macbook Pro because it has the Firewire 800 port, but the Macbook does not. I definitely suggest this laptop.

   The new macbook pros are great. If your going to run Final Cut Pro, you just want to make sure you format the screen so it will look broadcast quality. If you just use the default screen settings, that is where you can run in to trouble.

   Some people hate the glossy screen. Others love it.
   I have both a glossy (Macbook) and a matte (Apple cinema display).
   My take: As long as you’re in an environment where you have control of ambient lighting the gloss is not a problem.

   Go to apple’s website. Once you’re there you can customize your laptop so that it will have a matte screen instead of a glossy one.
