Hello all,
My MBP's screen was recently broken. As of right now, I'm considering either buying a cheap LCD to hook up to the MBP, getting the MBP fixed, or selling the MBP for parts and buying either a new (and by new, i mean used or refurbed) MB or MBP. Money is definitely an object, but portability is nice.
Anyhow, I wondered how bad the MB's glossy screen is for photo work. FWIW, I shoot RAW and edit in Lightroom and PS CS3. Most of my photos go straight to web, but plenty end up on newsprint or glossy print media. Is the perceived oversaturation/hypercontrast from glossy screens bad enough that I should just use the MBP with an external LCD until I can get it fixed?
Thanks,
wmmk
