Glare is only a problem if (1) there is a light behind you which you have no power over to change, or (2) your monitor is "glued down" somewhere and can't be moved.... AND is in an unfavorable lighting environment.
If that's not the case, there is no legitimate argument about "glare"... it can almost always be totally eliminated with a minimum of effort.
Personally, I like the "shiny" displays... vulnerable to glare ONLY if the user is a total numbnuts.
Hey, nearly 100% of notebooks today have the shiny, "brite" screen. Why do you think that is? Because it's known to be inferior but is done anyway just so the manufacturer can get a chuckle for goofing on its buyers? Because such screens are cheaper? (NOT cheaper... more expensive..)
So, I ask again... "why do nearly ALL modern notebooks have a bright, shiny screen"??
