Antiglare Option for 15” MacBook Pro

Several sources have confirmed that Apple now offers an antiglare option for the 15-inch MacBook Pro. Such an option has already been available for the 17-inch MacBook Pro for some time, but the 15-inch variant has hitherto been offered with a high-gloss screen only. Given that glossy monitors, while trendy, are impractical to use anywhere but a darkened room; this is definitely good news for MacBook Pro users. Moreover, matte screens are allegedly better at displaying colours accurately, which is an important point for photographers. The antiglare option for the 15-inch MacBook Pro is available as a $50 / €45 upgrade from Apple.

Amazing that Apple has the audacity to charge their lemmings for the option of having an anti-glare screen. Given the exorbitant prices on their trendy hardware, one would think that this would be a freebie. But then again, we are talking Apple-heads here.
