Hi all,

I am thinking about getting a new iMac, probably the 24' one, but I need some advice/suggestions.

The the way my room is set up, I have a window directly behind me. A rather large one. Given, I have venetian blinds to keep most of the light out, light still seems to get through the cracks...

.. I was wondering if anyone is in the situation I'm in and has one of the newer Mac's with the glossy screen?

Has anyone heard anything about or have any personal experience with those anti-glare stick on things that they sell, like the site below?

Do they work well?
Do they add any 'ugliness' to the screen, so to speak?

So, all in all, before I go out spending over a thousand dollars on one of these babies, I was just wondering if it'd be worth it or not, a-la glareness.

I'd appreciate any help / advice!

Thanks. Looks alright I suppose.

Well that sheet cant cost to much extra.

They're about $30 - $40 I think, for the 24' iMac that I want.

Anyone else?

I just got my beautiful 24' Goddess today and the thing that I feared, the glare from the window behind me, is irking me!

I'm going to have to splurge the money and try this film out I guess. No one has tried one of these?
