    Hey everyone,

    Got my 1558 a few weeks ago. I got it with the 1366 res screen. Overall, not a bad laptop. I don't seem to like the screen though, it is a bit too glossy for reading text and such apps. I do a lot of web/text browsing in office like environments, database development/diagramming. Not much games/movies.

    So looking for an antiglare film to put over the screen. Can anyone recommend such a thing? Does it help well? Are there sharpness trade offs withit? Or is it just better to get a business class laptop with a matte screen?

    I like the i7 cpu and 8g of ram I got in it plus hdmi for tv viewing/sound (business class laptops seem to lack hdmi, they just got display port/ converters).

    Other than the crazy reflective screen/glossy plastic, it is a reasonable laptop!

    Your replies/advices are appreciated.

    Michael.
