Thank god my laptop is a family computer and there are only 4 possible culprits, and what are some good products for cleaning your screen and overall computer (I mean physically and not the hard drive)

Most likely iKlear. Best stuff I ever used. It comes w/ some nice cleaning clothes too.
I really hate it when people touch the screens on my machines 
I won't forget one of my University professors who used his fingers and anything he was holding at the time to show us his Powerpoint slides. That was on a mainstream laptop however. I would have killed him if he had a Mac and did that lol!!

I have a very curious two year old who frequently gives my Macbook screen a stab with his finger - and the screen is fine apart from the sticky finger prints that wipe off with the cloth Apple gave me.
I am quite vigorous with that cloth too - and never any damage.
I never got a cloth with my MacBook Pro
guess its one of those things that Apple gets cheap with... like remotes
I had a meeting with a new client today, showing them my 3D work for their project and in the first three minutes I had to yell: "DON'T TOUCH THE SCREEN" and made finger chopping motions, and after that they were fine and they commissioned more work. But probably not because I yelled at them for trying to mess up my screen.
Thank God that has never happened to me!!haahhahahahah
D@mn...Happend to me too last night but she had a pen....Grrrrrr
One time in science my teacher got sort of mad because I had my MBP but not my book(We really don't do ANYTHING in that class, most of the time we will open our books and he will start to lecture a small group of students and that will last the whole hour and the person next to me had a book that we could share). Anyway he said put it up and before I could move forward to do so he slammed it shut and started to walk off with it
. I hurried to get up and get it back. On topic I HATE when people touch my screen. Even when it is not MY computer.
You're from Arabia by any chance? I thought "hands off" was for stealing the Mac, not for touching the screen?
Lol, I can't bear it when people touch the screen - strangely enough one of my IT technicians does it all the time. Every time I go to their lab I tell them to clean the monitors. It's a pet hate of mine. But then so is dirty keyboards - I have a packet of wet wipes and my keyboard and mouse get cleaned every couple of days.
I'm going to be unbearable next week as I'm getting a new Eizo monitor - I've already bought a monitor cover out of my own pocket which I'll be putting over it every night to make sure our cleaners don't go near it. I think I'm a bit too anal about my kit
But you should see the state some of our gear comes back in - I run a small IT department and we have a laptop pool - the state that some of our gear comes back in. I was almost in tears last week as one of my lovely 12" screen HPs came back with a big ding in the case. I think I take it a bit to personally
