    Wow, that's quite an impressive project. I'd just buy a non-glossy notebook in the first place (such as the old MacBook), but that's the way to get what you want without compromises.

    Wish he'd posted a non-grainy picture of the screen, though - even if it were just the standard background.

    I think the reason that he's fitting in the MBA screen is not because of the glossy screen, but because the MBA screen is superior to the Macbooks.
