Do you have any issues with the screen being dark compared to the 2009 model?

Nope, plenty bright for me. I'm using it at the office right now under many flourescent lights in the ceiling as well as a huge glass window behind me with no blinds. It's awesome!
 
Wow that looks like a matte screen although I know matte ones come with silver bezels. Is it as glossy as the previous models ? The picture sure makes you think otherwise !
 
Here's a screenshot of the 64 bit version of Geekbench that I just ran.

I think the matte version has a silver bezel.

Yes, the matte has a silver bezel. The difference between the matte and the glossy is outrageous! I was going to get glossy, but all they had at my local Apple store was the i7 matte (go figure) and my wife and I are extremely grateful that we were "forced" into the matte!

AH! this is making me want my 17" to arrive! I ordered it 15 min after they popped up, but it still hasn't been shipped yet, I opted for the i7... oh that's gonna be blazing fast! :D :D :D :D
 
has anyone seen any pics of the new 15" Macbook Pro with the high resolution screen? i was just wondering if that one has the narrower bezel too.
