Anyone know which is best for pic editing, the Macbook pro comes with a choice of screens which is a bugger so which to choose glossy or matt?

Hi Tim

I agree with Tom, photos look better on the glossy but the reflections drove me nuts. I got the matt, once calibrated its fine for editing.

Matt matt matt! The glossy is a pig to use in anything but an unlit cave. I got the matt MBPro and its excellent.
