    I am trying to get a matte screen on a 15.6 inch laptop that is under 4.5 lbs. That product is nonexistent, so I have to take a glossy ultrabook or MBPr and put a matte cover on it. (I do not feel comfortable getting a screen transplant). Does this cover work? Or, are there small cosmetic changes as a result of putting it on - more blurry, smaller viewing angles? I would like to hear from people have used these things. Thanks

    I would also be interested in this, I have always considered putting a matte cover on my M17X's glass screen, but was always worried about picture quality loss.
