Folks, before you listen to these complainers, sit in front of a MacBook, turned on and bright, at an angle that mimics the angle you will use to work...i.e. the screen right in front of you, not off at some odd angle.
When using the MacBook, you don't see any reflections. Sometimes I think these posts just come from Microsoft employees to try to stem the rising Apple tide. The screens are great. No reflections when you work.
Hate to tell you this, but the rising Apple tide is where the MS employees are coming from. My building alone has gotten 3-4 MBP users, partly because of Boot Camp. Non-MacBU guys are getting just as many MBPs as the MacBU guys, if not more (and the Redmond MacBU is in the building next door). Now, the Windows Vista division is different, but even there, people are having fun seeing how well the MBP runs Vista, and getting it dual-booting.
I have a hard time believing that these posts are MS employees spreading FUD. MS when it wants to attack a competitor, they do it loudly, and in public.
The OP is a result of Apple's policy actually. Apple wants few choices in their lineup to keep it simple. But when they change something in that lineup, in the product aimed at a consumer, which that consumer doesn't like... well... this happens. It doesn't happen at Dell, because Dell has a half-dozen other models aimed at the same customer. Apple doesn't have a replacement for the MB if you don't like something about it.
