    Probably a dumb question but I'm just wondering if there's a special way to clean myz60's screen? Usually with my desktop I just dampen a paper towel with window cleaner and wipe off the dust and finger prints. Will that work with this screen as well?

    Thanks!

    There's no magic formula other than a non-wood-based cloth* dampened with water (in other words, same as for your desktop LCD).

    Just don't let water run and get into the cracks of the display.. just a mildly damp cloth.

    I would suggest a microfiber cloth and cleaning solution. Spray the solution on the cloth and wipe.

    I use a non-scratching cloth I got from an eyeglass store. I wouldn't use a chemical unless explicitly recommended by the manufacturer of the display.

    Even then I'd probably still use water ;)
