Laptop with Matte Screen
 
I am after buying a laptop which has a matte screen, ideally. Any screen that doesn't turn your laptop into an impressive mirror when taken outside, would be great.

Does anybody have any recommendations on laptops that have this feature? I don't know why, but most laptops seem to come with glossy screens. I hear the business range of Dell laptops come with matte screens, but I need some help, I think!

Yes, both Dell and HP come with business line laptops that don't have the fancy mirror screens. The only thing that sucks is that they are very bland in nature because they have to look corporate.

I have a bunch of HP business laptops that are all matte finish.

Here you go, blowout sale....

Thank you for the link and the help! Unfortunately though I am in the UK. It is sad because all those prices are cheap to me, but as it is I'll have to pay the UK prices, which is almost twice the price.

ohhhh.....I keep forgetting that....what about places like newegg or tigerdirect? I'm sure there's places where you can bypass the international rates?

I'd love to be able to! Do Newegg and TigerDirect deliver to the UK? There's a good chance I'll be charged import tax, however, if the package isn't sent as a gift.

Oh, I just looked it up and Newegg does not.

However Tigerdirect does, but form what I read, when you include all the shipping charges it won't be worth it, and if there's a problem and you have to return it, that's even worse...
