Guys Girls
Please help, i am trying to remember which type of screen i have either glossy or matte, i have a 17 inch macbook, but i can not remember which one

there has to be a way for me to figure this out no?

And now the guy has two forums laughing at him. What caught my eye is that this guy is a contributor to that forum. True, it's an iPhone-ccentric forum, but still...

thats funny?

There are people who don't know the difference. I didn't know the difference until about a year ago.

As far as I can tell, this is just someone who doesn't know a whole lot about computers, nothing wrong with asking a question like that.

Hey, guys lets not be too hard on the guy.

Just yesterday I wondered if my MBP was a Mac and if so which one?

Haha! I was thinking something along those lines too.

I suppose Google-ing the answer himself, like any remotely intelligent non-Cro Magnon would, was too demanding of a task.

Glossy and matte surfaces existed long before the transistor age though.

I was chatting with one of the guys working in and Apple store a while back and he said he had a woman come in earlier that day asking what the difference was between a wired and wireless mouse.

I get this a lot, too, but for wired and wireless controllers for video game systems. It's depressing.

LOL. This is worse than the glossy/matte snafu.
