When will 10.6 come out? Once it comes out, will it be already installed in all new Macbooks? If so, this may in itself be worth waiting for..

That is not an option in the my preferences. If it was, it would be nice to finally get it fixed. It is the only thing that I have had problems with this thing. Does anyone know a way to inactivate that?
I don't doubt that it does.
Considering that the old MacBook was gloss only, I'd imagine IF they introduced a matte option it would be for the Pros only.
Out of curiousity, does anyone know what the new ACD's use? I'd say that'd be a good indication of what will eventually filter down into the new Pros.
is there really such thing as matte glass? The only thing i can think of is frosted glass, but I don't see how that'll actually help since you won't be able to see anything. 
To the OP: Usually Rev A products do have issues, and the common advice is to wait. However, the alu macbook from what i've read so far don't have any really serious issues that would prevent you from using and enjoying the computer.
No "moo" noises or core shut downs or things like that.
You can play the waiting game, or you can start enjoying a mac. Even if you waited and got it the first day it's released, few months down the road, there'll be a new one.

We don't get much warning either

Yes, it exists, go into any sort of framing shop and they usually have about half a dozen kinds of glass, among which are some with various degrees of being non-reflective.

Is it at least worth waiting 2-4 weeks from the original release, as this person commented, or is that not really worth it either? I just want to get the best machine possible, but I don't think I have the patience to wait for Rev B or Snow leopard. I do however have the patience to wait another few weeks.
