re this macbook pro 2008 late model review :

Lets face it apple have been ignoring user complaint and feedback for some time, the glossy screen only approach is just more sign of this, also the ibook motherboard failures due to design flaws and apples deliberate avoidance of recognising such issues, utterly detestable, the new brick based macbook is just pure evidence that the strength and thermal capacity of the plastics based books were not sufficient for them to last. That shot you show of the reflections on the glossy screen is fantastic evidence as to why this glossy only approach is misguided, unless apple expect all its users to live in diffusely lit gloomy caves whilst operating their macbooks. For a company that has a cash warchest of 25 billion, they should have recalled a few more of their worst design blunders, and saved their loyal users from paying the price. Ive been using apples since the days of the Apple II europlus and i think their attitude is getting very arrogant towards their users.
