...Glossy reflects better

A coworker's comment about the glossy display on his new notebook was ..."it's so you can see yourself while using it".

My old notebook has a matte display, it works fine and is easy to clean, and keep clean. My new notebook came with a glossy display. In the indoor/office type environment I use it in mostly, reflections haven't been a problem. But the glossy display is a much better dust magnet, and is very difficult to keep clean, compared with the matte display anyway.

Hope this is useful,
