I don't mean thinkpads but the cheaper models that Levono now offers that weren't available by IBM. You're right my generallization wasn't fair.
Wow, that looks so much nicer than the glossy version.Since no one has yet done so, I've taken the liberty of taking this photo of the Anti-Glare UMBP at the Regent Street Apple Store today. As you can see it is the same bezel as the 17" model but I think it looks better on the 15". The screen is amazing guys especially after watching some video on it. Well worth the £40 extra - thinking of snapping one up myself so my dad can have his glassy one back
Thanks for the picture.
Definitely.
Silver keys would look much nicer. My MBP is an earlier model with matte screen, silver bezel and silver keys. Looks nice and works well.
I purchased my matte display laptop from the Apple Store last night here are some pictures of it and one of the glossy model for comparison. I like it, you kind of miss the nice glossy look on rare occasion, but then I'll take it outside and then have the sun slap some sense into me.

Nice pics
So far, my shiny mirror has done quite well outdoors. Don't know why it's not flaring up like my Toshiba used to, but all's good to date.

I work in an office with huge windows and I really wish they will bring this option to the 13. I might replace mine sooner than I expected based on your pics.
Fantastic thanks.
Why are the ports different in the last pic? And which one is which?
The one without the express card slot is the AG MBP.
The MBP line was updated at WWDC and an SD slot was added in place of the express card slot.
The top one is the newer MacBook Pro. The bottom is the original unibody. They replaced the ExpressCard slot with an SD reader and rearranged the ports in the latest revision.
for a matte display I think it is very good.
is the red color accurate on the matte screen?
I like the silver look, it just bring back the class level of the pre model into the unibody style mixing it both together.
except maybe silver key will be better.
less stain to be seen and slight curve on the buttons.

yeah I have the same situation and while I absolutely adore my new 13 MBP I sometimes wish it wasn't quite so glossy. I do hope that apple eventually offers a matte option for the 13". I thought they learned their lesson when they brought the 13" to the pro line up that it is a bad idea to lock people into certain features just based on the size of the display?

They need the black rubber to be silver rubber.. then it'll look good. I personally think the MBA has the best looking "silver bezel" on these unibody systems.
I completely agree. The black rubber has always looked ugly and out of place to me when compared to how it looks on the air.
White keys (like those on the external keyboard) would go really nice with that silver bezel.
Looking forward to next summer/autumn, there will probably be some more nice improvements together with a new GPU and the new CPU architecture, just in time for when I most likely will be upgrading.

inknoise, Thank you so much for posting your photos - really made my decision easier!
Just one more question, is there still an indicator LED (for iSight camera active) integrated behind the silver bezel, to the right of the camera?

I hope Apple doesn't rid the antiglare option in a couple years altogether.
Might be a stupid question, but is the antiglare an LCD, not LED? Likewise, it isn't a glass bezel?

That 15" matte sure looks gorgeous. 100x better than the glossy!
From the looks in the picture the matte looks much brighter (same as the previous gen comparisons of glossy vs. matte, the matte in real life when I owned both were much brighter and had more pop to it compared to the glossy).
Gloss takes it about 1/2 shades darker than matt.
Finally harmony has returned to apples design philosophy!
Is it a 15" macbook Air, hang on NO!!! its a Macbook brick attacked too the 15" Airs Screen! What going on here!
(btw I don't need a damed optical drive! I have hundreds already!)
But its definitely the best Unibody yet along with the air.
